Sweet Peas ever introduced. 
MISS CALIFORNIA. The color is a beautiful shade of rich pink, 
deeply flushed and shaded with salmon. Unsurpassed for 
either exhibition or general cutting purposes.

Picotee but with slightly deeper color on the edges than its 
predecessor in this group. Strongly perfumed.

base of the standard and wings when young, lessening as the

SWEET PEAS 
CULTURE OF SWEET PEAS (a) 
Sweet Peas are deep rooting and heavy feeding plants. We 
recommend a trench to be dug about 18 inches deep and 18 
inches wide. In the bottom fork in about 6 inches of well-rotted 
manure. Fill in with soil in which is mixed a liberal quantity 
cf well-rotted manure. 
The actual sowing is done in a shallow trench 6 to 8 inches 
deep. Cover the seeds with 2 inches of soil and press firmly. 
The balance is filled in as the plants grow, thus establishing 
deeper roots than would otherwise be possible. Use one ounce 
of seed to 20 feet of the row and later thin out so that. the 
plants will be 4 to 5 inches apart. 
If flowers are kept picked and seed prevented from forming 
more and better bloom will be produced. Avoid overhead water- 
ing as it causes the flower buds to drop. 

WHITE AND CREAM SHADES 
SEXTET QUEEN. Pure white flowers of perfect form and of 
great substance. Normally produces five-flowered stems when 
grown under ordinary conditions. Black seeded. 
WHAT JOY. Primrose, shading to cream. A charming tone 
and so far the nearest approach to a true yellow. 
ORANGE AND SALMON SHADES 
GEORGE SHAWYER. A giant orange pink, the standard showing 
more orange than the wings. The flowers are perfectly formed 
and nicely placed. 
SMILES. Clear glistening salmon best describes this exquisite 
variety. The large flowers are beautifully waved and fluted.

red. A remarkable and distinct color. No collection is com- 
plete without this beautiful Sweet Pea.

and quite frilled. An outstanding Sweet Pea.
