Snapdragons 
Beautiful New Varieties Which Should Be in Every 
Garden 
Giant Snapdragons have become immensely popu¬ 
lar in the last few years. This is not to be won¬ 
dered at, as there are few flowers which for gor¬ 
geous coloring can match this Snapdragon and are 
as valuable for cut flowers as for show in the gar¬ 
den. The plants grow 2% feet high, are of healthy, 
robust growth, with deep green foliage, free and 
continuous blooming, producing immense spikes 
with enormous flowers, double the size of the older 
sort, and of great fragrance. Spring sown seed 
outdoors produces flowering plants in July, remain¬ 
ing in bloom until frost. For earlier flowering, 
start indoors and transplant when weather is suit¬ 
able. Their ea'se of culture, independence of heat 
and drought, continuous blooming qualities, and 
their magnificent, bright colors should entitle these 
Snapdragons to a place in every garden.
