ANTIRRHINUM (Snapdragon) 



Within the last few years Snapdragons have become immensely popular. This is 

 not to be wondered at, as, whether used for cutting or for show in the garden, 

 they are one of the most valuable flowers which can readily be grown from seed. 

 We offer three distinct types, the new Super-Giant or Maximum, the large-flowering, 



JtaU-growing or giant, and the equally large-flowered half 

 dwarf variety. In our trials the seeds sown out of doors the 

 first week of May came into bloom early in Julj', remaining 

 in full flower until November. For earlier flowering, they 

 may be started indoors or in a frame in March, transplanting 

 them to the open when the weather is suitable. We have 

 made exhaustive tests of scores of varieties and offer the ' 



following as being the best in their respective colors.
