Woodgro Selected Sweet Peas 
Summer-flowering Spencer Varieties 
Culture. —It is a well-known fact that, in 
order to have largest blooms of Sweet Peas, 
seed must be planted early, so as to make the 
greatest root-development during early 
spring; many professional gardeners sow in 
pots and transplant in April, or sow the 
previous fall. 
Sow seed as soon as the ground can he worked 
in the spring. Dig a trench about a foot wide 
and deep, and fill in with 6 inches of well- 
rotted stable manure; tread down firmly and 
replace the good garden soil. Draw a single 
straight line in the middle of the prepared 
surface, about %inch deep; sow seed at even 
distances of about 3 inches and cover. When 
the plants grow about 3 to 4 inches high, 
thin out, leaving the plants 6 inches from 
each other. Experts who raise for exhibition 
thin out to one foot. 
The Sweet Pea is a moisture-loving plant, 
and by the month of May the plants will 
require water. In order that the water may 
be retained by the soil and get to the roots, 
as well as keep them cool, it is advisable to use 
a mulch of Woodgro Cow-Manure and soak 
well with hose each or every other day, as 
needed.
