good Sweet Pea should have. Oz. $1.00; $3.50 per V^ib.

glowing orange sort. Oz. 50c.; $1.75 per Vilt). ; lb. $6.00 
Bridesmaid. Novelty. A delicate, sparkling shade of silver-pink and

inch stems. Ideal for shipping. Oz. 40c.; $1.25 per V^lb.; lb. $4.00

never before obtained. Oz. 40c.; $1.25 per y^lb.; lb. $4.00 
Josie. Rich, clear rose-pink; very large, long-stemmed flowers. A 
vigorous grower. Oz. 40c.; $1.25 per V^lb .; lb. $4.00

with wings so widespread that unless one looks closely he mistakes a 
single flower for two. The folds of the petals have a tinge of russet. 
Free flowering and a strong, vigorous grower. 
Oz. 40c.; $1.25 per i/ 4 lb.; lb. $4.00 
Shirley Temple. This Sweet Pea, which we consider the most 
beautiful we have ever originated, was obtained through a cross 
between Pinkie and Lady Gay. It has inherited blooms with the size 
and richness of color in Pinkie, plus the dainty frilled and fluted 
flowers of Lady Gay. Stems long, with four very large blooms on 
each stem. Oz. 40c.; $1.25 per V^lb.; lb. $4.00
