Early Flowering Long Season Spencers 
The latest in Sweet Peas. Suitable for all warm climates, tropical countries, and in Japan, Australia New 
Zealand and Hawaii. 
These novelties have been raised in our own Sweet Pea "workshop" by crossing the Early Flowering Grandi- 
floras with the large Late Spencers. They are quite fixed, both as to type and color. 
The Early Flowering Long Season Spencers will commence to bloom in from ninety to one hundred days 
from date of planting. They should be planted in all hot climates in preference to the Late Flowering Spencers 
but for cool climates the Late Flowering Spencers should be planted. 
New Early Flowering LongJSeason Spencers 
THESE NOVELTIES ARE ILLUSTRATED IN^COLORS ON BACK COVER. 
EARLY MORNING STAR— We put this novelty at the beginning of our list because we think it the best and 
most distinct. The color is a deep orange scarlet or flame color in standard with rich orange pink wings. 
The flower is practically the same color as the late flowering Spencer "Dobbie's Thomas Stevenson." The 
flowers are large and of best Spencer form and borne in threes and fours in wonderful profusion. Per packet 
of 15 seeds, 25c. 
EARLY SONG BIRD — We are sure this will be the leading pale pink. The flower is the same color as "Flor- 
ence Morse Spencer" and "Lady Evelyn Eyre" and a bit lighter than "Elfrida Pearson." It has the same 
excellent form and features of Mrs. Hugh Dickson, but is on white ground. The placement of the flowers is 
splendid and the flowers are borne on long stems in threes and fours. When in full growth it seemed as 
though every stem carried four large blossoms. This was a wonderfully fine patch and most attractive be- 
cause of the great quantity of blooms and the beautiful soft shade of pink. Per packet of 25 seeds, 25c. 
EARLY MELODY — This is a deeper shade of pink than "Early Song Bird"; on white ground, closely resem- 
bling "Countess Spencer" and near "Hercules." It might be described as rose pink on white ground. The 
effect when bunched is most pleasing. It is very floriferous. The flowers are borne on long stems and mostly 
four large, well-waved blossoms to each stem. This is sure to be a great favorite. Per packet of 25 
seeds, 25c. 
EARLY SPRING MAID — Those who are familiar with the late flowering Spencer "Mrs. Hugh Dickson" will 
have a good idea of what a handsome variety this is. The color is light pink on a cream ground and the 
blossoms have the same splendid characteristics of "Mrs. Flugh Dickson." It is a most effective flower 
and, like our other Early Flowering Spencers, it carries a great wealth of blossoms, borne in fours on long 
stems. There is no Early Spencer cream pink which is as attractive as "Early Spring Maid." Per packet 
of 25 seeds, 25c. 
EARLY SNOW FLAKE — This is the best Early Flowering White Seeded White Spencer we have seen. The 
blossoms are very large and of the best waved Spencer form. The flowers are borne in wonderful profusion 
on long stems. The form is every bit as good as our noted strain of "White Spencer," and for this reason 
will be in great demand by all who grow Sweet Peas. Per packet of 15 seeds, 25c. 
EARLY HEATHER BELL — This will be one of the most popular shades, as it will be so useful for any occa- 
sion. It is a little like the variety known as "Anita Wehnnan," but vastly superior in every way. The flow- 
ers are very large, borne in fours and threes on long, stout stems, and are of beautiful bold Spencer form. 
The color is a rich but pleasing mauve, but after standing in water the color becomes a beautiful mauve 
lavender. Per packet of 25 seeds, 25c. 
Collection of 6 varieties, 1 packet of each, $1.25.
