Early Flowering Spencer 
Plant from September thru December 
Approx. time seed sowing to bloom— 212-3 mos. 
Grows 5 to 7 feet high. 
The Early Flowering Spencer varieties are 
heat resistant and best adapted for Florida 
soil and climate. Sweet Peas do best in cool 
weather. They are heavy feeders and need 
very rich soil. Plant seeds one inch apart and 
cover two inches deep. When plants are five 
inches high, thin to three or four inches apart 
and furnish wire support for vines to run 
upon. Fertilize and water frequently. Keep 
flowers cut off every day to prevent seed 
pods forming and to prolong the blooming 
period. Sunshine and fresh air are very 
essential.
