Brazilian Butterfly Flower—An Exotic Annual 3 Sess? 
ANTIRRHINUMS (Snapdragon) 
IMPROVED RUST-RESISTANT STRAINS 
Splendid for beds or borders and one of our choicest cut flowers. To have flowers 
early, sow indoors during February or March, but even if sown outdoors early in May 
Snapdragons will bloom in July and throughout the Summer until frost. 
Burnett’s Inverness Blend 
A sensational strain of tremendous plant 
vigor and bountiful flower production. Each 
plant reaching 3 ft. and more in height bears 
a succession of strong, husky floral spikes 
throughout the entire season. The flower 
heads are unusually long and well set with 
many individual florets. The glorious assort- 
ment of many different pure colors as well as 
striking bicolors is an outstanding feature 
of this strain. Pkt. $1.00, 3 pkts. $2.85, 
1/16 oz. $3.75. (Illustrated in color, page 67.)
