Our Giant Orchid-Flowering Spencer Sweet Peas 
How to Grow Sweet Peas Successfully Plant September to June 
Prepare the soil with a liberal dressing of our spe¬ 
cially prepared Sunset Fertilizer. See page 44. Sweet 
Peas are heavy feeders. The soil should be deeply dug 
and thoroughly mixed with the Fertilizer. Make a 
trench about 5 to 6 inches deep, planting the seeds 3 
to 4 inches apart and covering them 1 inch deep with 
good soil. After planting, tread the soil lightly over 
the seeds or firm it with any suitable implement. Thor- 
Ascot. Dainty rose-pink. 
Avalanche. Finest pure white. 
Blue Bell. Delphinium-blue. 
Gleneagles. Beautiful azure-blue. 
Good Cheer. Rose suffused salmon. 
Majestic Cream. _Large; primrose. 
oughly soak the bed, and remember to keep it always 
moist, as any dryness after seeds germinate is fatal. 
When the plants are 6 inches high, pinch out an inch 
or so of the top to make them husky and sturdy. Gradu¬ 
ally fill in the trench to insure deep-rooted, drought- 
resistant plants. Five-foot common chicken wire, 
neatly stretched, is an ideal trellis but strings or small 
boughs can be used. 
Sunset. Giant; rose and amber. 
Tangerine. Deep, glowing orange. 
Warrior. Rich chocolate-maroon. 
Welcome. Brilliant scarlet.
