CUTHBERTSON SWEET PEAS 
Heat-Resistant, Spring Flowering 
Come into bloom, outdoors, about 10 days before the Giants and remain in bloom the same length of time. Plants are quite vigorous and 
produce a heavy crop of large, long-stemmed blooms. Heat-resistant and therefore especially adapted to localities where sweet peas have 
heretofore been more or less unsuccessful. Under glass they are unusually free flowering and prolong the spring cutting season.
