ANTIRRHINUM .snapdragon,. 



The Snapdragons do not receive in this country the attention they deserve. 

 Tourists see them used in beds and borders in all the famous parks and gardens 

 of the Old World, and we know from actual tests that they do just as well here 

 as in Europe. They succeed best in a rather light soil, in a sunny position, 

 and, although perennials, succeed well when treated as annual*.
