SWEET PEAS 
New Early Flowering Long Season Spencers 
The following new varieties of Sweet Peas begin to blossom 106 days after planting 
the seed in the open ground; six weeks earlier than the late flowering varieties 
planted at the same time. They usually blossom for four full months. 
4072. Early Morning Star . The color is 
a deep orange-scarlet or flame color in 
standard, with rich orange-pink wings. 
It does not burn badly out in the open 
and under glass is magnificent. The 
flowers are large and of the best Spencer 
form, and borne in threes and fours in 
wonderful profusion.25c. per pkt. 
4073. Early Song Bird . The flower is 
thesame color as Florence Morse Spencer. 
The placing of the flower is splendid for 
packing and they are borne on long stems 
in threes and fours. We think this will 
be the leading pale pink for florists.

4071. Early Melody . This is a deeper 
shade of pink than Early Song Bird, on 
white ground, closely resembling Count¬ 
ess Spencer. It is very free flowering 
and sure to be a favorite .. .25c. per pkt. 
4070. Early Spring Maid . The color is 
a light pink on a cream ground and the 
blossoms have the same splendid char¬ 
acteristics as “Mrs. Hugh Dickson” for a 
florist’s flower. It is a most effective 
flower, and like the other Early Flower¬ 
ing Spencers now being offered it carries 
a great wealth of blossoms borne in 
fours on long stems.25c. per pkt. 
4074. Early Snow-Flake . This is the 
best Early Flowering white-seeded White 
Spencer we have seen. The blossoms 
are very large and of the best-waved 
Spencer form. The flowers are borne in 
wonderful profusion on long stems. As a 
market variety it will be in great 
demand. 25c. per pkt. 
4075. Early Heather Bell. This will be 
one of the most popular shades with all 
florists, as it will be so useful for making 
up for any occasion. The flowers are 
very large on long, stout stems. The 
color is a rich but pleasing mauve. After 
standing in water the color becomes a 
beautiful mauve lavender. . .25c. per pkt.
