new giant type they are better to use 
in certain positions in the garden.

Snapdragon - Antirrhinum 
Plant from September thru December 
Approx, time seed sowing to bloom — 3-4 mos. 
GIANT SNAPDRAGONS 
The Snapdragons which we offer produce 
massive spikes 3 to 4 feet high, with close-set, 
large, velvety flowers which last for many days 
when cut. The seeds are small and slow to 
germinate. They should be planted in a shal¬ 
low box of rich soil, and, when 4 inches high, 
may be transplanted in rich, moist soil 1 foot 
apart. As soon as the plants reach 8 inches in 
height they should be tied to light stakes until 
the side branches are well developed. 
Frequent cultivation and applications 
of fertilizer will produce spikes of 
astonishing vigor and blooms of mar¬ 
velous size.
