DOUBLE SNAPDRAGONS 
SNAPDRAGON

Snapdragons are fascinating flowers with 
interesting forms and colors. They are easy to 
grow and will bloom continuously until frost, 
supplying unlimited cut flowers. Ordinary good 
garden soil will produce fine Snaps either in 
full sun or semi-shaded spots. Sow outdoors 
when danger of frost has passed, or indoors 
six weeks earlier.

SWEET PEAS 
Sweet Peas are deep rooting and heavy feed- 
ing plants. We recommend a trench to be dug 
about 18 inches deep and 18 inches wide. In 
the bottom fork in about 6 inches of well-rotted 
manure. Fill in with soil in which is mixed: a 
liberal quantity of well-rotted manure. 
Sow the seeds in a trench 6 to 8 inches deep. 
Cover about 2 inches and fill in the trench as 
the plants grow. Use one ounce of seed to 20 
feet of row and thin plants to 4 or 5 inches 
apart. Fall sowing gives finer flowers, longer 
stems and a slightly longer period of bloom. 
If flowers are kept picked and seed pre- 
vented from forming, more and better blooms 
will be produced. Avoid overhead watering as 
it causes the flower buds to drop. 
In California, Early Flowering varieties are 
sown about August 1 and throughout the winter 
months. If sown in August they will bloom by 
November. Keep the surface of the bed cool 
by using a light mulch.
