GIANTTLOWERING ANTIRRHINUM. 



These form brilliant garden beds, flowering profusely and continuously the first season 

 from seed. Unusually effective bedding displays are made from these noble plants; they grow 

 about 2 feet high, are healthy and stocky, and completely enveloped with large snap-dragon 

 flowers of splendid texture and substance, rendering them very durable under all conditions of 

 weather; their continuous-blooming qualities, ease of culture and independence of heat and 

 drought, and pure, bright colors, should entitle them to a permanent place in gardens. Although 

 perennials, they do splendidly when grown as annuals; spring-sown seed produces flowering 

 plants by July, which continue to bloom in increasing profusion until frost. The flowers are 

 nearly double the size of the older sorts. (See eut)
