Burpee’s Lovely SNAPDRAGONS ~ 
Snapdragons (botanically antirrhinums) have always been universal favorites for color in the garden, in 
the greenhouse during the winter, and as cut flowers. Of easiest culture, succeeding in ordinary well-drained 
garden soil—in full sun or semi-shade. The gorgeous flowers are freely produced for several months, and 
until frost where conditions are favorable. Be sure to grow Burpee’s New Giant Tetraploid Snapdragons, 
(Tetra Snaps for short), shown in color on front cover and described on page 48. Daintily ruffled flowers.)

Magnificent flower-spikes 2 to 3 ft. tall outdoors, the upper 10 to 12 in. of which is thickly 
studded with gorgeous blooms of immense size. Highly prized for planting in solid beds or 
borders. Invaluable for cutting. Plants will grow 4 ft. and more tall under glass during the 
winter, depending on climate, planting dates and growing conditions.
