New Type of Snapdragons 
1525 Burpee’s Fairy Rose is different from all other snapdragons—the flowers 
are smaller and more sprightly, stems slender with more of them produced on a plant. 
It has great appeal for garden use and cutting, especially where a light, airy, graceful 
effect is desired. Plants produce numerous erect spikes, 2 ft. tall, studded with slim, crisp 
flowers, 2in. long and 1in. across at the flare of lower lip. The general color of the standard 
is rose bengal; the rotinded portion of the lower lip is sulphur-yellow which softly suffuses 
the standard and the flare of the lower lip to create a delicate shade of apricot.
