Early Flowering Sweet Peas 
Burpee’s Early Flowering Sweet Peas come into bloom 3 to 4 weeks earlier than the Summer Flowering varieties offered 
on pages 30 to 35. They are especially adapted for growing in frost-free sections and for earliest blooms outdoors in the 
North, and also valuable for winter flowering under glass. They are being planted more and more every year. If you live 
in a locality where the late Sweet Peas have not done well, have your customers try some Early Flowering. They w r ill bloom 
before the summer heat arrives. Sweet Peas do best in cool weather. If seed was not sown in the fall, sow as early in 
the spring as the ground can be prepared. They prefer an open, sunny location, and deep rich soil which must be well 
drained. 
Burpee’s Sweet Peas are famous the world over as the “Best That Grow.” The flowers are extra large, of perfect form and 
texture, well placed on long strong stems, and usually produced in sprays of four. We have marked with a star (*) the 
varieties that we prefer in each color class; if you are in doubt as to which to choose, make your selection from 
those thus marked.
