BODDINGTON'S QUALITY SWEET PEAS 



ARRANGED 

 TO COLOR 



Sweet Peas have been termed tlie poor man's orchid. But no garden is too lowly or too large to contain some of these delightful flowers. 

 Easy of culture, they well repay anv slight trouble and attention attending their growing. Our list contains the cream of the American and 

 English varieties, selected by us with great care and with the assistance of the largest Sweet Pea growers and specialists of the world. Our 

 alphabetical list contains all the varieties catalogued by us, including the best novelties for 191 1 and 1912, selected with regard to their 

 " fixity " and their superiority over e.\isting varieties. Following are the varieties contained in our alphabetical list arranged under their 

 color heads with description and price. Our advice is to order early and bow early for best results. The best time is as soon as the frost is 

 out of the ground — and when it is not too wet.
