University of California Snapdragons, 
844, University of California. Mixed, (Rust- 
Proof.) H. A. In the last few years’ many 
flower growers and gardeners had to give up 
the growing of Antirrhinums ,(Snapdragons) due 
to the severe damages caused by rust. The Uni- 
versity of California was very active in pro- 
ducing a strain of rust-proof- Antirrhinum .and 
this new mixture has been: named after that 
university. In trials over 75% of the plants 
were rust-proof. The University of California 
Mixture contains practically all the colors to be 
found in Snapdragons and we are very proud 
to offer this most excellent mixture of rust-proof 
Snapdragons to our customers. Pkt., 10c; 2
