Buist's Beautiful Snapdragons 
Rust-Resistant Strains 
Antirrhinum © 
Hardy Annual. July-October. They 
are the aristocrats of the garden. 
There are few flowers that compare 
with Snapdragons for their many 
gorgeous colors, exquisite form and 
alharound usefulness. Their contin- 
uous blooming qualities, ease of cub 
ture and bright colors entitles them 
to a place in every garden, being 
fine for both bedding and cutting 
purposes. 
For Summer flowering, sow the 
seed indoors in March and trans¬ 
plant to the open ground in May. 
Provide rich soil and 
set the plants 9 inches 
apart each way. Snap¬ 
dragons prefer full sun, 
although they will do 
well in semi-shade. 
To have good straight 
stems, each plant should 
be staked to support the 
large blooms. Seed pods 
should never be allowed to 
form, and flowering stalks, 
after blooming, should be 
promptly removed. 
Rust-Resistant Snapdragons 
were developed to eliminate 
the widespread disease of rust 
which discolors the leaves and 
saps the vitality. It is pos¬ 
sible now to grow Snapdrag¬ 
ons to perfection, with the 
creation of these new strains 
which are highly immune to 
the rust disease.
