A facsimile guide to the history and cultivation of sweet peas

Originally published in 1896, this edition preserves Liberty Hyde Bailey’s guide to growing sweet peas in facsimile form. Alongside cultivation guidance, it records the flower’s history and discusses numerous heirloom varieties associated with late-19th-century gardens. The volume is also a document of its period: its original typography and reproduced images have been retained rather than modernized, so minor character imperfections and background shadows may appear. At 50 pages, it offers a compact historical gardening reference centered on a single annual flower.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Gardeners interested in sweet pea cultivation
  • Readers researching heirloom flower varieties
  • Collectors of historical gardening books and facsimile editions
