Micliell‘s ^^Distinctive^^ Antirrhinums 
Rustproof Antirrhinum • Snapdragon 
We are glad to announce that, after years of intensive work in an attempt to produce a strain of 
rustproof Antirrhinums, success has finally been achieved. This strain has proved noteworthy under exten¬ 
sively wet outdoor conditions; they have stood the tests and are better than 75 per cent rustproof. 
For growing outdoors for cutting or bedding, they will prove excellent. Each plant produces from 15 to 
18 spikes, which are nonlateral, with flower-heads 10 to 14 inches long. They are of vigorous growth, 
with broad, dark green foliage and are practically immune from rust. 
New Rustproof Varieties 
MICHELL’S NEW IMPROVED RUSTPROOF, CHEVIOT MAID SUPREME. We are proud to 
introduce this splendid new Snapdragon, which we believe to be the first rustproof in the forcing 
types. The color is a rich coral-rose and the non-shattering, large florets are closely set on heavy 
spikes with good, wiry stems. This variety will prove equally good for outdoor cut-flowers as well as 
greenhouse forcing. Trade pkt. 75c.; $2.00 per y 40 z.
