NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES IN Flower Seeds for 1923 The majority of the Flower Seed Novelties and Specialties offered on this and the following ten pages have been thoroughly tested in our trial grounds. Others have been received from most reliable growers, and the descriptions are those of the introducers. For General List of Flower Seeds see pages 63 to 118 ANTIRRHINUM (Snapdragon) Within the last few years Snapdragons have become immensely popular. This is not to be wondered at, as, whether used for cutting or for show in the garden, they are one of the most valuable flowers which can readily be grown from seed. We offer two distinct types, the large flowering, tall-growing, or giant, and the equally large- flowered half-dwarf variety. In our trials seed sown out of doors the first week of May came into bloom early in July, remaining in full flower until November. For earUer flowering they may be started indoors or in a frame in March, transplanting them to the open when the weather is suitable. f"- Large-flowering Half-dwarf ^- Snapdragons A splendid type with flowers of largest size, growing about 18 inches high, the best for bedding purposes: Per Pkt. 1162 Fascination.
