Landreth Seed Company : [catalog] DLandrethSeedCo00LandA Year: 19uu Poppy Shirley Sweet Peas always develop the largest and best flowers and continue longest in bloom under con- ditions of a rainy season or under irrigation. On the other hand, hot, dry weather diminishes the size of flowers, causes them to fade and induces the vines to cease blooming, to soon dry up if not revived by rain, but after a good rain will make a display as attractive as at first. White-seeded Sweet Peas are more delicate than the dark-seeded varieties, and under unfavorable conditions of soil and rainfall or drought do not | germinate as freely as dark-seeded, which are always hardy. Sweet Peas of any variety will generally bloom in 60 or 70 days after they germinate; one ounce being sown to ten feet of row.
