Romance of the .Sweet Pea

yellowest bloom at present known is the creamy Clara Curtis
 X novelty In the form of striped flower was offered in the year 1897 by Mir James Carter. and in the year 1860 there appeared the first bloom of the choice picoteeedged varieties which are popular today. The latter was raised by Major Trevor Clarke II q fine white flower with edging of blue. and Major Clarke scored a double triumph, for his flower was also the first sweet pea with blue coorng
 The greatest revolution in the history of the sweet pea. however, was inaugurated on July 25 l9al, when al the National Sweet Pea society's first exhibition. held in the old Royal Aquarium London MT Sias Cole. Earl Spencer,s gardener al Althorp park displayed the famous Countess Spencer beautiful pink variety with a wavy instead of the conventional smooth standard The growers at once and during the last ten years SO great has been the increase of wavy or frilled va riejies after the Spencer type that the latter now rules the sweet pea world
