NEW RUST PROOF ANTIRRHINUM 



In some sections of the country Antirrhinum cannot be grown on account of the rust which attacks 

 the foliage. By planting these new rust proof varieties success may now be attained.

 and flower spikes. The color is pure crimson overlaying a ground of orange and gives the effect of a 

 fiery crimson. The foliage and the stem is dark plum color.

 making spikes of exceptional length. The color is rosy-pink with white tubes. The broad foliage 

 is bright green and the plants are base branching, having from 8 to 15 spikes to a plant. 



1146B Buttercup. A new color in Antirrhinums which has not heretofore been available in pure 

 cultures. The deep canary yellow on the lip and the base of the standard, blending to a pale creamy 

 yellow towards the margin, gives the flower a delightful two-tone effect.

 ceedingly floriferous, throwing from six to eight spikes to a plant. It has a very distinct base branch-
