July and August are SNAPDRAGON months. If fall 

 blooms are wanted, plants must be benched during th?se 

 months. Likewise, seed must be sown now if plants ire 

 wanted to follow mums. So get busy and have a 



HOUSE OF SNAPDRAGON 



You are sure of more money to the square foot by using 

 snapdragon than from any plant you can grow. They are e sy 

 to do, easy to sell and a pleasure from start to finish.
