Cait’s Chorobred Giant Spencer Sweet Peas 
Annual—Culture “A”, Blooms May to July ‘In the latitude of Norfolk, Sweet Peas are sown in the 
late fall as well as in the early spring. To secure the 
large flowers and brilliant colors, sow the seeds 3 inches 
deep in a rich soil that has been heavily manured, and in 
a location where the plants will get plenty of sunshine. 
Pick the blooms regularly, and they will bear longer. 
Peat moss makes a good mulch for Sweet Peas. If green 
aphis or lice attack the plants, spray with Black Leaf 40. 
The Giant Summer Flowering Spencer type, with its 
waved and fluted petals, which usually produces four 
blooms to the stem, has become one of our most popular 
annual flowers. While the Early Flowering sorts may be 
sown out-of-doors, they are usually sown in greenhouses 
for winter blooming.
