Plants of many bemtiifid Japanese Anemones, including the Qtccen Charlotte, which is 

 sho-wn in colors on the front cover of this catalogue, will be found offered with other 

 hardy plants in our plant department. 



ANTIRRHINUM (Snapdragon). 



The Snapdragons do not seem to receive from amateurs the attention they deserve. In 

 our trial grounds last year we had a line each of the three improved varieties offered 

 below. They were sown in the open ground late in April, and were in full flower in 

 July, remaining a sheet of bloom until frost, and were much admired by many visitors. 

 They succeed best in a rather light soil, in a sunny position, and, although perennials, 

 succeed well when treated as annuals. All of the varieties are worthy of the most exten- 

 sive cultivation.
