SPENCER SWEET PEA

This new Sweet Pea is charming and dainty; 
with the kind permission of Mr. and Mrs. 
Temple, it is named in honor of their daugh¬

favorite, Shirley. The soft pink flowers are 
frilled and fluted; very large; and produced 
in clusters of four on long stems. Pkt. 25c. 
Early Flowering Sweet Pea— 
Early Chime 
This flower is a most fascinating shade of 
light salmon pink of a new and distinct shade 
on a cream ground. The standard and wings 
are alike in tone, giving a beautiful effect 
when bunched or when combined with other 
colors. The flowers are unusually large, beau¬ 
tifully waved and nicely placed on long, stout 
stems. Pkt. 25c.

stems. Will bloom profusely for a long period. Pkt. 25c. 
New Late Flowering Sweet Pea—Chinese Blue 
The color of this large, flowering Sweet Pea is a solid, rich, deep 
blue. It does not fade out on the edges. The flowers are produced in 
clusters of four on long stems. Pkt. 25c. 
Sweet Pea Culture 
Hardy Annual. The soil for Sweet Peas should be made rich and 
mellow by digging it 2 feet deep and incorporating with it old, rotted 
and pulverized manure. Soils which are at ail heavy are best dug in 
Fall and during the early Spring before the seed is sown. Hardwood 
ashes and air-slaked lime should be worked into the upper 6 inches of 
soil. A sunny situation is the best, with the rows running, if possible, 
North and South and fully exposed to the sunlight and air on both sides. 
The seed should be sown as soon as the frost is out of the ground; 
earliness in sowing is most essential; the object being to have as long 
a spell of cool weather as possible after sowing. 
Sweet peas are usually grown in double rows, with a wire netting 
or a row of brush between. For each row make a trench or furrow 
about 6 inches deep and 9 to 10 inches apart. Sow seed plentifully in 
the bottom of the trenches and cover with about one inch of soil, 
pressing down firmly; and by degrees, as the vines grow up, fill the 
trenches with soil and thin out to about 2 to 3 inches apart. 
Virginian Stocks

Haines New Double Sweet Peas

Double Effect

friends, as it has real merit, and is worthy of a place in every garden.

beautiful and under favorable conditions they will produce a large 
percentage of double flowers. Usually the double and single flowers 
are borne about half-and-half. They are tall-growing Sweet Peas. My 
mixture includes every desirable shade and color. Pkt. 8c; oz. 20c.
