JOHN LEWIS CHILDS, FLORAL PARK, QUEENS CO., N. ^WEtT^E; The First Form of a Dwarf Sweet Pea. This is a novelty of unusual importance. It is a dwarf Sweet Pea, the plant growing only five inches high, yet spreading out and forming a solid mat oi foliage and flowers one and one-half feet across. The blossoms are pure milk- white, very sweet, of largest size and great substance, and borne on stems four inches long, three flowers on each stem. It begins to bloom as early as May, and unlike the climbing Sweet Peas, continues in profusion until killed by frost. This is a remarkable feature and makes it at once one of the most superb plants for bedding, massing and edging in cul- tivation. For pot culture, also, it is of great value, being novel, unique, fragrant, always full of flowers and superla- tively beautiful. Next to our Giant Imperial Japanese Morning Glories, it is the greatest flower seed novelty of last year. Small packets, 5 cts.; large packets, 10 cts. S^'eet Peas.—At 5c. per pkt. Our Great Collection of Grand yew Varieties, All at Five Cents per Packet. One of the dear old flowers that will never go out of fashion. Everyone who has a yard ought to grow quantities of this sweetest of all flowers, that is not only a beautiful low-growing vine for garden and decoration, but one of the most useful of all in furnishing material for vases, bouquets and all cut flower work. Plant quantities of these lovely flowers and cut them with a lavish hand. Their presence will bring pleasure in the sick room, adorn your friends' otherwise empty vases, and make happy the flower-hungry children, with no pretty yards and flowers
