OUR 25TH 
ANNIVERSARY SWEET PEA NOVELTIES 
Macdonald's ‘‘Little Sweethearts’ are an entirely 
new class of Sweet Peas. Each plant makes a perfect 
mound of flowers just under 8 imches in height and 
width. Flowers are of the large ruffled spencer type 
and a full color range will be available. All Sweet 
Pea fanciers will welcome this class, with new oppor- 
tunities for border, bedding, and pot plant culture. 
Remember to save a spot for our “Little Sweethearts” 
in the Novelty section of your next catalog. Color 
plates and complete descriptions will be available 
in July. 
EARLY OR WINTER FLOWERING 
Our listing includes all of the most important Florist and Home 
Gardener varieties. These newer sorts feature extra strong growth, 
long stems, and large flowers—with many being duplexed. Winter 
Sweet Peas bloom at least two weeks earlier than either Cuthbert- 
son or Summer Spencer types. This is the type for Christmas flower- 
ing—either under glass or outside in the milder climatic zones. 
Sweet Peas have been a Macdonald specialty for twenty- 
five years. During this period we have originated many current 
favorites. Let us send you trials for your garden or florist custo- 
mers. No better Sweet Peas are available anywhere—at any price!
