“All the Best”? Sweet Peas 
LATE OR SUMMER PEAS 
(350 seeds per oz.) 
This is the original strong growing class so 
largely used for summer flowering. We have for 
years found them profitable for outdoor cutting by 
sowing not later than February Ist, placing 3 or 4 
seedlings in a 3 in. band or pot and after hardening 
them in an outdoor frame, planting them out. This 
is done in 3 ft. spaced rows, the pot plants spaced 
about 8 in.; but before doing so, syringe and fumi- 
gate very thoroly, being sure they are clean of 
aphis. Usually they should be sprayed for aphis 
every 2 weeks until they flower. Failures are fre- 
quently due to not watching this point. With us 
they usually reach a height of 4-5 ft. and are sup- 
ported with wire and string as indoors. Water 
should be applied when necessary. Such a start with 
us flowers freely the last two weeks of June.
