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 extensively wet outdoor conditions; they have stood the tests and are better than 75 per cent 
rustproof. For growing outdoors for cutting or bedding, the.y will prove excellent. Each plant pro¬ 
duces 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.
