Early Flowering Spencer Sweet Peas 
Spencer or Orchid-flowered Sweet Peas 
The best of the old-fashioned or Crandiflora varieties are now quite overshadowed by this wonderful type, which are quite 
distinct, having large, round, open flowers of extraordinary size, usually measuring 2 inches across, with wavy standards and 
wide-spreading wings, a very large percentage bearing four of these immense blossoms to the stem, which is long and strong, 
making them of exceptional value for cutting. All the sorts offered below have been thoroughly tested and are very superior in 
every respect. 
NEW EARLY-FLOWERING SPENCER 
SWEET PEAS 
These new varieties come into bloom three to four weeks 
earlier than late Spencers, and therefore should be well in 
flower before our summer heat arrives. Vines are less branch¬ 
ing than those of the later type. The blossoms are larger and 
beautifully waved, of perfect Spencer form, borne three and 
four on extra-long stems. The most popular of all Sweet Peas.
