SUNSET SEED AND PLANT CO. 
Deep Maroon and other deep, closely-allied tints — Conlinued 
Boreatton Differs from Stanley only in form, standards being more or less 
reflexed laterally, which gives them a narrow, elongated appear- 
ance. 
Indigo King Has a shade or two more of indigo than Monarch, which makes 
it, especially the wings, darker. Sides of standard deeply sinu- 
ated, as in Biitlerfly, causing the upper half of standard to hood. 
Should, in our opinion, be discarded. 
Purple Prince Standards purple, shaded maroon; wings mauve, lightly suf- 
fused with purple. Old type ; medium large ; expanded (sometimes 
reflexed) standards. Its color does not commend it. 
Blendings 
Delicate 
Crown Jewel These beaudful varieties, we consider, comprehend the most 
Coquette beautiful mingling of subdued rich tones yet appearing in the 
Sweet Pea. The rare and delicate blendings, fine form, and large 
size, being in no other variety so fully developed. We especially 
admire the soft, quiet tones in the surface coloring. Crown Jewel 
we have placed first, though it is difficult to choose between the 
two sorts. Standards delicate creamy rose, deepest on the dorsal 
surface, and at its suture on the inner surface; a slight clouded 
effect is noticeable when the flower is in its prime, carrying with it 
a trace of violet. The wings a delicate, yet rich, creamy blush, 
suffused with a pronounced primrose tint. Its three (sometimes 
four) flowers are finely arranged on long, slender stems. Foliage 
unusually large, and deep green; a vigorous grower and profuse 
bloomer, but, unfortunately, a variety that will require, like other 
thoroughbreds, very careful handling to hold true to type. 
Coquette's color is a delicate creamy flesh, with a faint purplish 
rose tinge in standard; wings rich creamy primrose. A strongi 
vigorous grower, usually producing extra-long, three-flowered 
stems. 
Venus Another variety of rich, delicate blendings — a mingling of 
pink, salmon, and rose-buff, difficult to describe faithfully. 
Flowers medium large and finely formed; standards very much
