large collection, or interesting to the amateur. We have 

 not noticed seedlings, unless they have been proved and 

 shown to be worthy of general culture. 



GIANT OF BATTLES. Flower and truss large ; habit 

 good ; foliage large ; color dark scarlet, with purplish eye. 

 A good variety. 



DRED. Flower medium ; habit weak ; a good bloomer, 

 but of a dull purplish lake color. Pretty for variety. 



ADMIRAL DUNDAS. Foliage and habit good ; color vel- 

 vety scarlet. Fine. 



GENERAL SIMPSON. A magnificent variety ; color scarlet, 

 crimson ; flower and truss very large ; habit very strong ; 

 by far the best of its color. No garden should be with- 

 out it. 



CELESTIAL. A strong growing variety, the leaves often 

 two inches across ; truss large, forming a fine head ; color 

 pink, with darker eye ; very fine. 



EVENING STAR. Color dark crimson, with well-defined 

 white eye ; growth small ; very fine in the house, and one 

 of the best of the eyed varieties for the border. 



ROSY GEM. A lovely verbena ; flower and foliage of 

 medium size ; color rosy lake, with light eye ; fine in the 

 house, but worthless for open culture.
