Sweet Peas—Giant Spencers 
Early- or Winter-Flowering Sweet Peas 
If sown in August and September under glass, they 
will bloom from November until late in the spring. 
If sown outdoors they will bloom at least three weeks 
earlier than the summer-flowering type, and because 
of their extreme earliness, a row of these should be 
in every garden. 
The following 12 varieties we consider the most val¬ 
uable for cut flowers. 
BALL’S ORANGE IMPROVED—Clear deep glowing 
orange. 
BALL’S ROSE IMPROVED—Rich deep rose-pink. 
EXPOSITION PINK—A gorgeous rich pink, one of 
the most fascinating colors ever introduced.

CULTURE—It is a well-known fact that, in order 
to have largest blooms of Sweet Peas, seed must be 
planted early, so as to make the greatest root-develop¬ 
ment during early spring; many professional gar¬ 
deners sow in pots and transplant in April, or sow 
the previous fall. 
Sow seed as soon as the ground can be worked in 
the spring. Dig a trench about a foot wide and deep, 
and till in with 6 inches of well-rotted stable manure; 
tread down firmly and replace the good garden soil. 
Draw a single straight line in the middle of the pre¬ 
pared surface, about 34 inch deep; sow seed at even 
distances of about 3 inches and cover. When the plants 
grow about 3 to 4 inches high, thin out, leaving the 
plants 6 inches from each other. Experts who raise 
for exhibtion thin out to one foot. 
The Sweet Pea is a moisture-loving plant, and by 
the month of May the plants will require water. In 
order that the water may be retained by the soil and 
get to the roots, as well as keep them cool, it is advis¬ 
able to use a mulch of Woodgro Cow-Manure and 
soak well each or every other day, as needed.
