HENRY A„ DREER, PHILADELPHIA— FLOWER SEEDS 



AQUII<BGIA or COI^UMBINK 



No hardy plant grown from seed, is rnore easily handled than the Columbine. 

 Seed may be sown in the open ground early in spring, and will, in most cases, 

 bloom the same season; or they may be planted in August or September, and will 

 corae up early in spring and make vigorous plants, which will bloom abundantly 

 during late spring and early summer. 



Columbines should be planted wherever their presence will 

 serve to lighten up a too stiff and formal planting, for no other 

 plant has so airy a grace as the Columbine, is more generous of 

 its blooms, or more effectively adapted for cut flowers.

ANTIKRIIIXU9I (Snapdragon) 



Within the last few years Snapdragons have become immen- 

 sely 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 two distinct types, the large-flowering, tall-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 July, remaining in full bloom 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.
