pence* 
Sow as soon as the ground can be worked in the Spring in trenches 
at least 6 inches in depth, then as the plants grow fill in the soil 
about one inch at a time until the trenches are full, taking care not 
to cover the young plants. Liquid manure applied occasionally will be 
found very beneficial. 
Keep well watered during dry periods and spray periodically to 
prevent injury from green fly or aphis. 
In view of the numerous Sweet Pea introductions this list has 
been again revised and includes those varieties which trials have 
proved to be the best in the various colors.

The Early Flowering Spencers bloom about two weeks earlier than 
the late flowering varieties when grown under congenial conditions. 
The flowers are beautifully waved and produced on long stems, four 
flowers predominating on each stem. For winter flowering under 
glass or in the southern states they far surpass the Late Spencers. 
When grown in the open ground they will usually bloom in about 
100 days after planting.
