^‘FLOWER 
SEEDS 
FOR FLORIST S”' 
Rust Resistant Snapdragons 
These strains unquestionably possess resistance to rust. Every 
season we prove this by lining up all varieties in our trial grounds 
and practically all keep clean—more or less—alongside regular 
kinds that sometimes disappear completely by midsummer. But they 
do not hold up so well in all localities, and some seasons seem 
harder on them than others. Why? Since trained investigators 
fail to definitely tell us, we will dismiss the question by saying it is 
due to varying conditions and strains of rust. Of more interest is 
the fact that 99% of the rust resistant plantings come thru success¬ 
fully. The one possible objection to them is that some varieties will 
vary slightly in color.
