SHIRLEY TEMPLE, is the most beautiful Sweet Pea we have ever origi¬ 
nated. It has blooms with the size and richness of color in Pinkie plus 
the dainty frilled and fluted flowers of Lady Gay. The color is softer 
and more beautiful than Pinkie. The flowers are the largest we have 
seen on any Sweet Pea and it has long stems with four very large 
blooms on each stem.$ 2.00
