AQUILEGIA (Columbine) 



No hardy plant grown from seed is more easily handled than the Colum- 

 bine. 



Seed may be sown in the open ground in August or September, and will 

 come up early in spring and make v-igorous plants, which will bloom 

 abundantly during late spring and early summer. x ^ 



Columbines should be planted wherever their presence mil serve to 

 lighten up a too stifi 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.

ANTIRRHINUM (Snapdragon, 



Within the last few years Snapdragons have become immensely pyopular. 

 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-flcwering, tall-growing, or 

 giant, and the equally large-flowered, half -dwarf variety. For winter flower- 

 ing in the greenhouse seed is usually sown from July to September.

 truly beautiful either in the garden of when cut. 15 cts. perpkt.; 2 pkts., 25 cts.
