FLOWER SEEDS 
Aart & Vick 
RELIABLE 
A Complete List of the Better Varieties of ANNUALS and PERENNIALS 

ANTIRRHINUM or 
SNAPDRAGON 
These pretty, half-hardy perennials, that 
bloom from July until frost, belong to the 
aristocrats of the garden. Appearing, as they 
do, in the most pleasing shades, with the lovely 
flowers completely encircling the stout stem 
to fully 12 to 18 inches at the top, they are 
most useful for bedding or as cut flowers. Seed 
sown outdoors in early May will make plants 
that bloom from early in July until frost. For 
earlier flowering, start indoors in March and 
transplant outside when weather is favorable. 
Just barely cover the seed when sowing. 
Hart & Vick’s Giant-Flowered 
Medium High Varieties 
This is a splendid type of Antirrhinum for 
bedding. The plants grow very bushy, about 
20 inches high, and flower very profusely. A 
complete color range of Rustproof kinds has 
not yet been developed in this class. Rust- 
proof varieties are designated by an (R).

Our list of Flower Seeds does not cover every 
variety, but it does describe the best kinds 
for garden planting. We believe that a care- 
fully selected list like this is what the amateur 
gardener wants. Our seed is the best that can 
be grown, carefully tested for quality, and 
with ordinary care will give splendid results. 
It is of the same high quality we sell the par- 
ticular florists for greenhouse and _ outside 
planting. 
Annuals are those that you must plant each 
season. Perennials are hardy, last for years, 
and generally bloom the next year after sow- 
ing the seed. 
In this catalog Perennial and Biennial va- 
rieties are designated by CAPITAL letters. 
Our regular packages of flower seeds 
are liberally designed to fill the needs of 
the average sized garden. 
This year again we offer in many va- 
rieties of flower seeds a “Large Package” 
which contains considerably more seed than 
the regular package, and has been planned 
for the larger suburban and estate gardens.
