SWEET PEAS—GIANT SPENCER 
Culture—Early planting is advised so that they may bloom before very hot weather. Dig the soil deeply to allow 
deep rooting. Open a trench 4 to 6 inches deep, in which plant the seeds early in February and cover with an 
inch of soil and press it firmly. When up about 2 inches begin cultivating and gradually fill the trench until it 
is level. Do not allow the roots to become too dry; water at least twice a week. 
Fall Planting—Sweet peas may also be started in October, November and December, planting 4 to 6 inches 
deep, but covering with 1 inch of soil and working a mulch of leaves over the top. They will become well rooted 
and grow up at the first opening of spring and produce an abundance of blooms earlier and for a longer season 
than spring plantings. 
GATHER SWEET PEA BLOOMS FREQUENTLY; THE MORE YOU CUT THEM THE BETTER AND 
LONGER THEY BLOOM.
