HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA— FLOWER SEEDS 



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 large-flowering, tall-growing, and the equally large-flowered, half dwarf variety, and 

 the new maximum variety. We have made exhaustive tests of scores of varieties, and offer
