WINTER PEAS 
350 Seeds per oz. 
If successfully grown the very free flowering habit of Winter 
Peas makes them quite profitable. Their roots seem very 
susceptible to a form of rot that frequently cuts their life and 
crop of flowers in half. To avoid this we steam sterilize our 
soil for Peas annually. In our latitude they must be sown early 
in July to get the vines hardened enuf to hold buds for winter 
flowering. An August sowing usually goes into the shortening 
days too soft to hold buds. A September sowing we let come 
slowly until January when they start setting buds. Night tem- 
perature should then be held at 50°. A November or December 
sowing should be grown cold until they flower in March. Our 
Grower Talks’’ gives detailed information on handling Peas 
throughout their season. 
THREE REAL IMPROVEMENTS 
These three new varieties represent the result of 6 to 7 years 
of patient and costly cross-breeding and selection by ourselves 
under real winter greenhouse conditions. That they represent 
really worth while improvements, we are firmly convinced. 
Ball Blue Supreme. A real Blue Ribbon winner. A rich luminous Hoover shade 
of blue with flowers almost twice the size of that variety and without its 
objectionable green edges. Many 4’s produced on extra long heavy stems. 
Extremely free flowering and very vigorous in growth. We predict a great 
future for this variety. Delivery from new crop late fall. 
Ball Orange Supreme. A long awaited and badly needed addition to this color 
class. A distinct improvement over our Ball Orange in its much stronger 
growth and longer, heavier stem. An intense fiery orange color that must 
be seen to be appreciated. Our own development and introduction. Delivery 
from new crop late fall. 
New Ball Rose. A warm, rich deep rose. Large flowers, usually in 3’s on long 
strong stems and extremely free flowering. A vigorous, healthy grower but 
vines not as tall as most varieties which makes it well suited for use where 
head room is limited. Prefer this to our original Ball Rose because of flower 
size and better stems. Ready for immediate delivery.

After 15 years we have found a variety that seems to 
beat the old-timer Harmony. Ferry-Morse’s new Twi- 
light, altho practically identical to Harmony in color, 
both in mid-winter, and spring, improves it consider- 
ably with a much stronger growth and longer stem 
and larger flower.
