Hart & Vick’s Sweet Peas 
Sow seed as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring, for Sweet Peas, to be a success, must have made sufficient root- 
growth before warm weather comes to have carried the roots deep into the ground where they will be moist and cool at all times. 
Sweet Peas must have deeply spaded, well-worked soil for successful growth, and they must be frequently and thoroughly watered— 
never be allowed to dry out. We suggest mulching around the plant with peat moss to hold the moisture. Dig a trench about a foot 
wide and deep, and fill in with 6 inches of well-rotted manure. If no manure is available, spread thickly with bonemeal or sheep-manure. 
Replace soil in the trench to within 4 inches of the top. Plant the seeds in a zigzag row, 2 to 3 inches apart, covering with 1 inch of soil. 
Thin plants to stand 6 inches apart when 4 inches high. When cultivating, gradually fill trench to the top with soil. To support the 
vines, use branches, chicken-wire, or Sweet Pea fencing. Any support provided should be at least 5 feet high and the plants trained 
to it when they are up 8 inches from the ground.

flower of the Spencer Orchid-flowering type, but blooms a month earlier. 
If you will keep them picked they will flower for three months. Plant them 
early. They are particularly adapted for growing under glass during the 
winter and for outdoor growing in the southern part of the country, where 
the Summer-flowering kinds have not proved satisfactory. Complete cul¬
