ANTIRRHINUM—Snapdragon 
Hardy Perennial 
Doz. 
The ordinary snapdragons are of too coarse growth 
to be admitted to the rock garden, but there are two or 
three species that are very charming in June. A dry, 
sunny spot and well drained soil are essential to success! 
A. Asarina —A trailing plant from the south of France 
with very attractive foliage and creamy white flowers..$

ANTHYLLIS—Vetch 
Hardy Perennial 
A. montana —Somewhat shrubby plant about one foot 
high w : th silky foliage and dense heads of pink blos¬ 
soms. Very easy culture and much prized for the 
rock garden .$ .50 $ 5.00 
AQUILEGIA—Columbine 
Hardy Perennial 
The Aquilegias need no praise; they appeal to 
everyone by their grace and the beauty of their flow¬ 
ers, the colors of the new hybrids being particularly 
handsome. All the Columbines may be used on the 
rockery, but it is better to leave the larger species and 
their varieties to the border, although some of them are 
very attractive when perched on some high spot. 
They thrive in shade or sun but prefer a rich, well- 
drained soil in partially shaded position. If not allowed 
to go to seed and not covered too heavily in winter, they 
will flourish for years and will not change their colors. 
Coal ashes put around the crown in the fall will help to 
prevent their decay. 
A. alpina —A charming species from Switzerland and 
best suited to the rockery. Beautiful blue and white 
flowers. Very rare.$ .50 $ 5.00
