The National Sweet Pea Society’s 
Special Selections of Sweet Peas 
We have pleasure in offering the following Special Collections of Sweet Peas, selected by the National Sweet Pea Society as being 
the best varieties yet introduced, or that have been in commerce sufficiently long to allow of their being thoroughly tested. 
The members of the N.S.P.S. in their corporate capacity form the most expert, competent, and unbiassed authority on Sweet 
Peas in this country. On these grounds wc feel sure that our friends will appreciate the opportunity of acquiring the selections that 
are here given. 10
