SPECIAL NOTE 
Having accomplished the purpose of qualifying a wide color range of RUST RESISTANT SNAPDRAGONS we now feel the time has come to 
drop the non-resistant strains from our list. Because of the fact that approximately 100% of the rust-resistant strains invariably come through 
successfully and since an ounce of seed contains upward of 100,000 seeds, the comparative difference in cost is not worth speaking of.
