839. ROSALIE. H. A. A showy color 
in Snapdragons. It is a rich deep 
rose with an underlying tone of topaz 
or amber, giving it a richness which 
makes it stand out conspicuously

and lips are the same color, the depth 
and richness of the flower are intensi- 
fied. Flowers are base branching, pro- 
ducing from six to eight long flowering 
spikes on which the florets are decid- 
edly well arranged. This all-purpose 
snapdragon should be in every garden,
