These grow only 18 to 24 inches tall, so are 
adapted for outdoor summer bedding because 
they flower so freely and continuously.

themselves to mass planting we have chosen 
colors that will blend well avoiding those which 
might clash (Rust Resistant).

Harris’ Colossals 
Illustrated in color on page 43. 
Ii is no exaggeration to say that these snap- 
dragons have the huskiest growth, longest stems, 
largest and finest flowers of any on the market 
today. They bloom continuously through ad- 
verse conditions and everyone who sees the plant- 
ings for our seed crop compares them favorably 
with greenhouse grown stock. They are not the 
so called “rust resistant’? strain but there was 
no evidence of the disease on our plants. In fact, 
we feel that if they are planted in clean soil there 
is little danger of infection. 
5030—Colossal Mixture. We think this is the 
finest blending of colors available in these 
large flowering varieties. The mixture contains 
white, shades of pink, yellow, crimson and 
orange. 
Pkt. 20c; Lg. Pkt. 40c; 44 Oz. 80c; 14 Oz. $1.50. 
5039—Velvet Giant. This All-America winner 
for 1947 is a welcome addition to the colors 
available in the Colossals. The very large well 
formed florets are a vivid crimson with gold 
overtones and closely spaced on tall sturdy 
spikes. Foliage a rich dark green. 
Pkt. 25c; Lg. Pkt. 50c; 4% Oz. $1.00; 14 Oz. $1.75. 

Harris’ Colossal Snapdragons are certainly superior.

(Poor Man’s Orchid)

STOCKS 
**Sure to Bloom”’ 
Just imagine! Stocks actually flowering all 
summer from seed sown outdoors about May 
15th. As the summer advances, the flowers are 
more plentiful and the stems longer. The plants 
are of branching habit, eventually growing to 
about 18 inches high, with a large percentage of 
large, double flowers. For the best results sow 
slocks in rather poor soil, and in full sunlight.
