Sweet Peas are more than flowers—they are a necessity 
for every garden. They lend themselves readily and easily 
to beautifying schemes of the city and country farmer. 
LOCATION—Any location will be suitable that is well 
drained and that will get free circulation of air. Early 
planting is essential with sweet peas in order to give the 
roots a chance to develop more rapidly than the tops dur¬ 
ing the cool weather. Early plantings produce blossoms 
before the intense heat of the summer comes which is likely to wilt the 
plants if they do not have well developed roots. Sowings should be made 
in furrows 12 inches deep and the seed covered with an inch of soil and 
the trench filled in as the plants grow. It is a help to soak the seeds 
in lukewarm water overnight before sowing. Use one ounce to twelve 
feet of row.
