SPENCER SWEET PEAS—MARY PICKFORD 
SWEET PEAS 
Cultural Directions 
For early Spring flowers, sow Sweet Peas in 
the Fall, October, November and December. For 
late flowering they can be planted any time dur¬ 
ing the Winter or Spring. Prepare the ground by 
working from eighteen to twenty-four inches deep. 
Give the ground liberal dressing of manure and 
bone meal. 
Set the seeds not over two inches deep and two 
inches apart on a firm bed; do not plant seeds in 
loose soil. When the plants are out of the ground, 
thin from six to twelve inches apart. Give the 
young plants good support, so they can climb four 
to six feet high—in this way they produce nice, 
long stems. In hot weather, water frequently. For 
large flowers apply liquid manure about once a 
week. Pick flowers daily (even poorest flowers) 
as this prolongs the flowering season.
