SWEET PEA Early Flowering Sequoia 
All our Sweet Pea seed sent to you will be treated with Cuprocide (red cop¬ 
per oxide), unless ordered without this treatment. 
Various sowings have proved that Sweet Pea seeds treated with Cuprocide are 
less liable to rot, especially during the germination period in the ground. We 
believe that seeds treated with Cuprocide will give you a greater percentage 
of germination than untreated seeds which have a tendency to rot in soil that is 
too wet. 
Sweet Pea seed treated with Cuprocide must not be soaked before sowing. 
★We recommend the starred varieties as the best of their colors.
