Early Flowering Sweet Peas 
Burpee’s Early Flowering Sweet Peas come into bloom 3 to 4 weeks earlier than the Summer Flowering varieties offered 
on pages 30 to 35. They are especially adapted for growing in frost-free sections and for earliest blooms outdoors in the 
North, and also valuable for winter flowering under glass. They are being planted more and more every year. If you live

in a locality where the late Sweet Peas have not done well, 
have your customers try some Early Flowering. They will 
bloom before the summer heat arrives. Sweet Peas do best 
in cool weather. If seed was not sown in the fall, sow as early 
in the spring as the ground can be prepared. They prefer 
an open, sunny location, and deep rich soil which must be 
well drained. 
Burpee’s Sweet Peas are famous the world over as the 
“Best That Grow.” The flowers are extra large, of perfect 
form and texture, well placed on long strong stems, and 
usually produced in sprays of four. We have marked 
with a star (*) the varieties that we prefer in each 
color class; if you are in doubt as to which to choose, 
make your selection from those thus marked.

lb. rate; V 2 oz. at V 2 the oz. rate where the price per
