1580 Burpee’ s Velvet Giant All-America Bronze Medal Winner. An outstanding, 
vigorous growing snapdragon, 2% ft. tall, individual plants producing 6 to 12 towering 
spikes each filled with many nicely placed flowers which are larger than the other regular 
or diploid varieties here listed. A velvety texture adds richness to the deep crimson blooms, 
while an undertone of orange-bronze showing through the crimson lightens up the color 
and gives it life. Long stems of uniformly spaced flowers make Velvet Giant a top-notch 
antirrhinum for cutting and garden decoration, as well as for exhibition purposes.

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 
eet Plants produce numerous erect spikes, 2 ft. tall, studded with slim, crisp flowers, 
2 in, long and 1 in. across at the flare of lower lip. The general color of the standard is rose 
bengal; the rounded 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.
