In 1911, in the Scottish Border village of Sprouston, the young parish minister wrote to the Daily Mail for entry forms for its sweet pea competition.The top prize was a staggering 1000 and organisers predicted that as many as 15,000 would enter. He could not foretell that the paper's estimate of the number of competitors would be more than doubled, or that a fortnight before the deadline a nation-wide drought would threaten the very existence of the sweet peas he was so painstakingly cultivating. This touching - and beautifully illustrated - tale is based on a true story.

Excerpt from Sweet Peas and How to Grow Them IF the rose is queen of summer flowers, then surely the Sweet Pea is a high princess; second only to the rose in popular estima tion, she possesses advantages to which the other is a stranger. Sweet Peas are among the easiest of all flowers to grow, yet how few grow them well! They are absurdly cheap, and one makes a fresh start with them every year. And how quickly they come to fullest beauty! A few short months and lo! The insignificant seed becomes a lissom plant, varying in height and vigour according to its treatment, and soon is smothered in blossom.

Excerpt from Sweet Peas and How to Grow Them If the rose is queen of summer flowers, then surely the Sweet Pea is a high princess; second only to the rose in popular estimation, she possesses advantages to which the other is a stranger. Sweet Peas are among the easiest of all flowers to grow, yet how few grow them well! They are absurdly cheap, and one makes a fresh start with them every year. And how quickly they come to fullest beauty! A few short months and lo! the insignificant seed becomes a lissom plant, varying in height and vigour according to its treatment, and soon is smothered in blossom. To become a successful grower of Sweet Peas one has first to appreciate the fact that they are bons vivants; to put it more plainly, they need a soil deeply dug and well manured. Give them a rich feeding ground and they seem never to tire of pleasing you; stint them in this particular, and how sulky they are, how offended! In the selection of varieties the grower has a bewildering choice, and where so many are beautiful it is almost as difficult to discard the worst as to choose the best. Thus the way to successful Sweet Pea growing is not without its baffling cross-roads and seductive byelanes, and it is hard to retrace a step taken in the wrong direction. It is important, then, to start well and to take no short cuts, for, tempting as these may seem, they are but lures to failure. "Sweet Peas and How to Grow Them," contains the maxims (without the moralisings) of famous Sweet Pea growers and full directions for the Sweet Pea lover's journey. In short, it endeavours to act as guide to the inexperienced, - indicating the pitfalls that beset the unwary, - to while away the tediousness of the going, and to point the way to a successful issue.
