Greatest NOVELTY in Flowers Ever Known. 
THE DWARF “CUPID” 
SWEET PEA, 
which, unlike all others, grows only five inches high! 
The Only Dwarf Sweet Pea Ever Known. 
The foliage is very dark green ; blossoms pure, waxen white, of 
unequaled substance, and fully as large as “Emily Henderson.” The 
plant does not grow over five inches high, and never more than twelve 
to fifteen inches in diameter. The stems are about four inches long, 
bearing two or three blossoms, all very near the end of the stem. It is 
a wonderfully free bloomer, and begins to flower as early as May and 
continues until November. The seed is white, and of the usual size. 
Everyone who sees it is amazed — everyone wants to know what it 
is, where it came from — such a Sweet Pea, yet so unlike a Sweet 
Pea ! It is true that its stems are short, but it has all the fragrance of 
the most favored Eckfords. 
It is a grand flower for florists’ use for floral designs, and only 
needs to be so used to prove its merit. Nothing would make a prettier 
wreath, cross, or pillow than a mass of Cupid blossoms wired in with 
ferns, smilax, or other suitable green. The Violet, the Rose, and the 
Carnation will now have to share with Cupid their popularity for 
gentlemen’s boutonnieres ; it is just the thing for this, having just the 
right fragrance, size, color and beauty, and it is a Sweet Pea — the 
only Sweet Pea that looks well in the button-hole. 
Will be ready January i, 1896. 25 cts. per pkt., 5 pkts. for $1, 12 pkts. for $2.
