Burpee's Snapdragons 
Snapdragons (botanically antirrhinums) have always been universal favorites for 
color in the garden, in the greenhouse during the winter, and as cut flowers. Of 
easiest culture, succeeding in ordinary well-drained garden soil—in full sun or 
semi-shade. The gorgeous flowers are freely produced for several months, and 
until frost where conditions are favorable. Sow seeds outdoors when soil has 
become quite warm; for earlier blooms sow indoors six weeks before your regular 
outdoor planting time. Full cultural directions on every packet. Best treated as 
annuals, although they are biennials in sections having mild winters.
