SWEET PEAS 
= 
We list the top varieties in Sweet Peas 
and while many fine varieties are offered 
under many different names, we adhere 
strictly to the introducer’s name; by trials 
ourselves and many reports from our cus- 
tomers in all sections of the country as 
well as very extensive trials by our Sweet 
Pea growers in California, we are able to 
discard the varieties that have been sur- 
passed by newer introductions and we are 
positive that, if your varieties are selected 
from the list we present, you will have 
‘the best varieties one could possibly se- 
cure. 
A hardy annual climber requiring rich 
deeply worked soil containing clay but 
with good drainage; sunny situations are 
best but not exposed to hot dry winds 
during the summer. It is better if the 
soil can be manured ,and worked in the 
fall so that the soil will be in good phys- 
ical condition in the spring; 1)2-2-ft. is not 
too deep to work the soil in the fall. Sow 
seeds as early as possible, 2-in. apart 
and 3-in. deep covering with but 1-in. of 
soil and then gradually filling in the other 
2-in. as the plants grow; some sand mixed 
in the top soil, especially with the white 
seeded sorts, will help. Thin plants to 3-in. 
apart. It is important that the support 
given the vines be rigid at the bottom so 
that the wind will not be able to tear 
the roots or disturb them by jerking the 
supports. Keep flowers picked for best
