GIANT-FLOWERING 
SWEET PEAS 
In the latitude of Norfolk, Sweet Peas are sown in [ate fall 
as well as early spring. To secure large flowers and brilliant 
colors, sow the seeds 3 inches deep in rich soil that has been 
heavily manured, where the plants will get plenty of sunshine. 
Pick the blooms regularly, and they will bear longer. Peat 
moss makes a good mulch for Sweet Peas. If green aphis or 
lice attack the plants, spray with Black Leaf 40. Blooms 
from May to July. Culture A.
