The Choicest Spencer 
Sweet Peas 
New names of Spencer Sweet Peas are appearing 
so rapidly that to know them and what to select 
requires considerable time in experimental trials. 
Many of the sorts brought out only a few years ago 
have been dropped, while others are still unsur¬ 
passed. The newest are not always the best, and 
so this sifting process goes on each year. In the list 
below will be found a wide range of varieties, each 
having merits that make it worthy of a place in a 
list of the best Spencers. Our stock is grown with 
great care and has proved itself of the finest quality 
that is grown.
