1729. Sadie Buppee — in describing tills grand new sweet pea it 
is difflenit to convey a jnst idea of the beauty whieli it posse-sses. The 
extreme daintiness of its form and pure pearly-wliiteneas is altogether 
lieyoiid description. It is absolutely the prettiest shaped flower yet pro- 
duced. The individual flowers ore of splendid substance; the plant is a 
strong grower, free flowering, and produces its flowers on long stont sterna. 
The variety is of the fasliioiiable hooded form, and most suitable for biittoii- 
liole, bouquet, or other decorative work. .Judges have been unanimous in 
their prai.se of .S’ut/ie Burpct, and notwithstanding the beantiful Bhinclie 
Buriiet, the finest white now in commerce, the First Class Award of tlie 
Uoyal Horticultural Society pronunneo it Tim White Sweet Pea, " Par 
Excellence.” Plant thinly in good ground, cut freely, feed liberally with 
liquid manure right through the growing 6cn.«on. and we have no hesitation 
in predicting a four months’ coiitiniions bloom from tlie one sowing. 
Is sure to become immeiisoly poiiular, as sweet pea amateurs and florists 
liave for years waited expectantly for a really lirst-cla'S giant-flowered 
hhck-seided wliite sweet ja'a, and tlie pceiiliarity of BaJie Burpee appearing 
ill both black and wliite seed renders it additionally interesting, the 
flowers being identical. Six seeds of each colour are in every ]>acket
