VERBE'NA. Vervain. (From the 

 Celtic Ferfain. Nat. ord., Verbena 

 [Verbenaceee], Linn., \k-Didynamia 

 2 -A ngiospermia . ) 



Annuals and biennials by seed, in a slight 



hotbed in March, or in the open air in April ; 

 perennials by division, layers, and cuttings; 

 tender kinds chiefly by cuttings, unless when 

 seed is employed to obtain new varieties. 

 These varieties are struck generally in spring 

 and autumn, for blooming in pots, but chiefly 

 for decorating the flower-garden beds. A rich 

 sandy loam suits them best. The points of the 

 shoots in spring strike best in a little peat. In 

 autumn they can scarcely be kept too cool. 

 The smallest piece will form a better plant than 

 a larger piece.
