Our Giant Orchid-Flowering Spencer Sweet Peas 
Plant September to June 
How to Grow Sweet Peas Successfully 
Prepare the soil with a liberal dressing of our 
specially prepared Sunset Fertilizer. Sweet Peas are 
heavy feeders. Cutting the blossoms greatly prolongs 
the flowering season. The soil should be deeply dug 
and thoroughly mixed with the Fertilizer. Make a 
trench about 5 to 6 inches deep, planting the seeds 3 
to 4 inches apart and covering them 1 inch deep with 
good soil. After planting, tread the soil tightly over 
the seeds or firm it with any suitable implement. 
Thoroughly soak the bed, and remember to keep it 
always moist, as any dryness after seeds germinate 
is fatal. 
When the plants are 6 inches high, pinch out an 
Ascot. Dainty rose-pink. 
Avalanche. Finest pure white. 
Blue Bell. The best delphinium-blue. 
Gleneagles. Beautiful azure-blue. 
Good Cheer. Rose suffused salmon. 
Magnet. Cream pink. 
Majestic Cream. Large; primrose shade. 
Pinkie. Unusually fine glistening pink. 
Powerscourt. Beautiful shade of lavender. 
Any of above varieties, pkt. 10c; 25c for 
inch or so of the top to make them husky and sturdy. 
Gradually fill in the trench to insure deep-rooted, 
di’ought-resistant plants that will bear magnificent, 
large, long-stemmed flowers. Five-foot common 
chicken wire, neatly stretched, is an ideal trellis but 
strings or small boughs can be used.
