PBOPAGATING VEBBENAS. 



What is the best method of propagat- 

 ing verbenas? I have tried many times 

 in different ways, but never had good 

 results, as the verbena cuttings damped 

 away in two or three days. I am located 

 in eastern Texas. M. L. 



Verbenas are of easy propagation. It 

 is probable, however, that your warmer 

 climate may be the cause of the damp- 

 ing off. They root readily if treated the 

 same as carnations or chrysanthemi^ns, 

 but must not be put in a warm propa- 

 gating house. Verbenas withstand a 

 lot of frost and are among the hardiest 

 of annuals. Grow your stock plants cool 

 and take short, soft cuttings, either 

 rubbed off with a heel or cut below a 

 pair of leaves. Use clean, sharp sand 

 and do not allow the cuttings to suffer 

 from want of water. As a general rule, 

 seedlings possess more vigor and are 

 more generally satisfactory than plants 

 raised from cuttings. Sow the seed in 

 February. This will give you strong 

 plants before spring sales start. Of 

 course, to preserve special varieties, it 

 is necessary to propagate from cuttings', 

 but if you purchase reliable seed in 

 separate colors you will find only a 

 small percentage of rogues when they 

 bloom. C. W. 



WORMS ATTACKING SALVIAS. 



I should like to know the name of a 

 certain worm which attacks salvia foli- 

 age, and the best means of exterminat- 

 ing it. The eggs are laid by a moth 

 much like a Green Bay fly. The worm 

 seems to live on the fleshy part of the 

 under side of the leaf, turning it brown. 



J. P. 



I do not know definitely about the 

 particular worm which is attacking 

 your salvia. You cannot use poison 

 without the danger of seriously damag- 

 ing your plants. Spray the plants well 

 with Sulpho-Tobacco soap, or one of 

 the nicotine extracts. Directions for 

 the use of each comes on the bottles or 

 cans. In using the spray, be sure to 

 direct it so that the lower sides of the 

 leaves will be thoroughly moistened.

NAME OF VINE. 



Can you give me the name of the 

 vine enclosed? M. H. S. 



The vine is called Euonynius radicans 

 variegatu?. C. W.
