Helen Hayes, famous actress, known and loved by everyone, with the new Sweet Pea named in her honor by David Burpee. 
Burpee 4 s New Early Flowering Sweet Pea 
3328 Helen Hayes 
One of the most beautiful Sweet Peas ever created, and named by special permission of the well- 
known actress. 
Helen Hayes Sweet Pea is of an outstanding color, best described as a soft and appealing shade of 
coral or coral-cerise enlivened by a luminous suffusion of bright orange. The coloring is uniform over 
the entire surface of the standard, wings, and keel, and is of unusual clarity, never streaking nor 
burning even when grown outdoors. 
With such rareness of color as seen in Helen Hayes Sweet Pea, we also have vigor of plants, length 
of stems, and size of flowers. The flowers are extremely large and quite frilled. Many of the blooms 
are duplexed, again adding to the attractiveness of this new Sweet Pea. Stems are long and strong 
and usually bear four flowers each, all open at one time and carried with excellent placement. Plants 
are most vigorous and extremely free flowering. 
Helen Hayes Sweet Pea is lovely at all times and especially handsome under artificial light. It never 
fails to attract attention, and when a man like Jacob Gunther, of Long Island, N. Y., who has grown 
Sweet Peas for over thirty years, declares that the Helen Hayes Sweet Pea has the loveliest color he 
has ever seen, it is indeed high praise. Helen Hayes writes us: “I love the Helen Hayes Sweet Pea 
and will be one of its most enthusiastic supporters.” Ox. 854 ozs. $3.00; lb. $10.00.
