Cuthbertson 
Sweet Peas 
Annual 
Sweet Peas bloom best in an open, sunny 
Situation. Keeping the flowers picked as 
fast as they open prolongs the period of 
bloom. The new Cuthbertson strain is very 
fragrant and long stemmed. The Grandi- 
flora type of Sweet Peas are sturdy and very 
floriferous and the flowers are scented, al- 
though of only medium size. The Spencer or 
Waved Sweet Peas are larger and finer in 
form as well as color than the Grandiflora 
type, but not quite so free blooming. Plant 
as early as the ground can be worked, in 
deeply prepared, rich soil. Never allow the 
soil to dry out after the plants appear. 
Spring-flowering Cuthbertson 
The flowers are large, long stemmed, very 
fragrant and earlier than the summer- 
flowering Spencers. The plants are very 
vigorous and are satisfactory for either out- 
door planting or greenhouse crops. If seed is 
sown in March, the plants will remain in 
bloom until August. Free flowering and ex- 
cellent for cutting. 
One ounce of seed will plant a row about 
15 feet long
