able for growing in pots to bloom during 
the winter. They are wanted in every gar- 
den. Very effective in beds and fine for cut-

blooming in early June and continue until 
frost.

Cultural Hints for 
Sweet Peas 
Sweet Peas require cool weather for satis- 
factory results. For this reason, very early 
sowing is to be recommended. A rich, well- 
drained soil is preferred, and full sun is 
necessary. Fall planting produces good re- 
sults. 
The Cuthbertson strain of Sweet Peas is 
resistant to heat, and is, therefore, recom- 
mended in hot locations where other varie- 
ties may be disappointing.
