Nor&e^ SNAPDRAGONS 
Just now the most popular flower is the Antirrhinum or Snapdragon. Wonderful development has been made in these lovely 
flowers, increasing their size and adding shades of most delicate pink and of blended buff and amber. Already we had fine whites, yel- 
lows and maroon. These newest sorts, which we offer below, are different from the older types, more varied and more beautiful. Use 
the Intermediate type for bedding — the spikes will be the best size for cutting, while for bedding the height will be just right. 
Snapdragons are biennial and may be sown in the fall or in the spring out of doors where they are to remain, or they may be 
sown in boxes and transplanted. Snapdragons are fine cut flowers, easily raised.
