Superb Sweet Peas of the 
“Spencer” Type 
Because of such enormous size, of waved 
or fluted appearance, and charming blend- 
ings of harmonious colors, this new type 
can only be appropriately described as 
truly gigantic “Orchid-flowered.” The 
flowers are not only of extremely large 
size, but are distinct in having the outer 
edges of the standard and wings beauti- 
fully crumpled or waved, the tissue being 
so full that there is not room for it to lie 
flatly expanded or smoothly rolled. The 
standard is broad and tall; the wings are 
broad, well spread and held erect by the 
keel. All colors mixed. Pkt. 10 cts.
