Burpee Spencers 
are a revelation of beauty and daintiness. 1 hey are to-day the most popular 
Sweet Peas in cultivation. 
The House of Burpee is known the world over as the American Headquarters for 
Sweet Peas. We were the first to grow the Spencer type in America. 
At Floradale Ranch, “The California Home of Sweet Peas,” are produced the magnificent 
strains that have proved unsurpassed. Thousands of trials of new varieties are made 
each year, but only those that meet the Burpee requirements are grown on for seed. The 
Collections offered below include the finest of these varieties. Burpee’s Leaflet on 
Sweet Pea Culture is enclosed with each collection.
