SNAPDRAGON. 



New Giant White. Sweet Scented. 



I have heretofore offered this remarkably 

 fine and desirable variety of Antirrhinum, 

 but it still deserves a prominent place 

 among my choicest novelties. It is offered 

 as an annual, but in many situations it 

 proves to be a hardy perennial. It blooms 

 the first year, and when established sends 

 up flower spikes by the dozen, one to two 

 feet high, covered with a rich profusion of 

 showy blossoms. The color is pure white, 

 with lemon tinged throat, and it is re- 

 markable for its exquisite fragrance. It is 

 unsurpassed for cut flower purposes or for 

 bouquet making and is altogether one of 

 the most lovely of that desirable group 

 which we sometimes designate as old-fash- 

 ioned flowers. Nothing more desirable is 

 to be found among garden favorites old or 

 new, and its' habit of perpetual bloom will 

 maintain its claim to permanent . public es- 

 teem. Nice young plants 50c. per dozen.
