Michell’s Early or Winter- 
Flowering Spencer Sweet Peas 
The following varieties are especially adapted 
for forcing under glass for winter and early 
spring blooming. Also excellent for sowing out¬ 
doors in the southern states. 
Novelty Varieties 
Delicious. IQ 38 Novelty. This fine new early- 
flowering variety is a lovely new color, being 
a shade of pale salmon and cream, delightfully 
blended together. The flowers are huge, and 
the habit and length of stem are everything a 
good Sweet Pea should have. Pkt., 25c.; 
75c. per %oz.; oz., $1.25. 
Bridesmaid. A delicate, sparkling shade of 
silver-pink, as vigorous and healthy and as 
slim and supple as the name implies. Brides¬ 
maid bids fair to outstrip the field in popu¬ 
larity as a cut-flower, in a large table center 
arrangement. Large flowers, usually fours, on 
stems 14 to 16 inches long. Pkt., 25c.; 60c. 
per J^oz.; oz -» $L00. 
Eileen. Rich begonia-rose with salmon shadings, 
changing under certain lights to a dazzling 
cerise. A brilliancy of exotic splendor never 
before obtained in a Sweet Pea. The flowers 
are large, well placed on long stems. Vigorous 
grower and free bloomer. Pkt., 25c.; 60c. per 
J^oz.; oz., $1.00. 
Sequoia. An enormous rich golden cerise color, 
and so frilled and wavy are its wide-spread 
wings that unless one looks closely he mistakes 
a single flower for two; petals have a tinge of 
russet. Free flowering and a strong, vigorous 
grower. Pkt., 25c.; 60c. per J^oz.; oz., $1.00. 
Shirley Temple. 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.

Pinkie. Pkt., 25c.; 60c. per J-^oz.; oz., $1.00.

pink on a white ground, with a touch of amber.

Michell’s Distinctive Stocks 
New Giants of California 
This magnificent new group is so marked in 
improvement that we believe they will head the 
list of forcing Stocks in the very near future. 
Giants of California are very early-flowering, 
with a high percentage of mammoth double 
flowers, and having the branching habit of the 
Bismarck. If planted close, they will nearly at¬ 
tain the height of the Column Stock, approxi- 
mately 30 to 36 inches.
