12 HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA, PA., WHOLESALE PRICE LIST 



Dreer's Fine Sweet Peas 



We only offer the very best varieties, 

 kinds best suited for Florists for cutting. 



Those marked * are the 



Orchid=fIowered Sweet Peas. 



This type is distinguished from the standard sorts by the extraor- 

 dinary size of their flowers and by the standard being crinkled and 

 wavy. They usually bear four blossoms on a stem, and are as easy 

 to grow as the commonest sorts. Owing to their being shy seeders 

 they will always be higher in price than the standard sorts.
