 wings: in a bud state it looks like a pale primrose self, but when

 ing contrast and quite a new departure, (ienerally three, but 

 often four flowers on a stem. A great accjuisition and should be 

 in all best collections. Avoca was another name sug.gested for it.

SWEET PEAS. PALE YELLOW. OR PRIMROSE, continued 



9ETHEL ROOSEVELT. (Burpee, 1910.) Is a true waved variety 

 of the largest and most perfect Spencer type. There is naturally 

 some variation, even in Spencers, and Ethel Roosevelt claims the 

 most e.\clusive Spencer perfection. The ground color is a soft, 

 pleasing primrose, or straw color, overlaid with dainty flakes and 

 splashes of blush-crimson. The crimson is not at all pronounced, 

 and simply gives some warmth and golden tinting to the yellow- 

 ish ground work. It bunches splendidly and will easily lead in 

 this type of coloring for a long time. Pkt. 25 cts., 5 for Si.

 most pleasing color effect. The background is cjuite a deep prim- 

 rose, flushed with rose. The flowers are all of good substance, 

 borne three and four to the stem: there were proportionately 

 more sprays of four flowers than with any other "Spencer" grown 

 by us The strong dark-green stems carry well the gigantic flow- 

 ers. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 20 cts., Klb. 7,5 cts., 11). $2.
