gess' Giant Spencer Sweet Peas 
The old-fashioned Grandiflora varieties are now superseded by the Spencer and the Giant Ruffled types. The 
Spencers have large, round open flowers of extraordinary size, usually measuring two inches across, with wavy 
standards and wide-spreading wings, a very large percentage bearing four of these immense blossoms to the 
stem, which is long and strong, making them of exceptional value for cutting.
