Snapdragons in recent years have become very popular, whether 
planted in the garden, or for cut flowers. No other flower has 
such a wide range of colors. For blooms early sow the seed in¬ 
doors or under glass and transplant as soon as the ground is 
warm and dry, setting plants about ten inches apart and giving 
them plenty of water. They will bloom all summer.
