SWEET PEAS 
\ j ' ; 
There are several hundred varieties of Spencer Sweet 
Peas, many of them of splendid merit, but in many cases the 
varieties are much alike. Those listed below are of the most 
distinct and highly recommended in the Burpee and Bodger 
strains. 
CULTURE—It is a well-known fact that, in order to 
have the largest blooms of Sweet Pea, seed must be planted 
early to make the greatest root development during early 
spring. Sow seed as soon as the ground can be worked. Dig 
a trench a foot wide and deep and All in with 6 inches of 
well-rotted stable manure; tread down firmly and fill in 
with good garden soil; plant seed in a straight line along 
the prepared surface, about 3/4 inch deep and about 3 
inches apart. When plants are three or four inches high, thin 
out to 6 inches. Keep well watered.
