a palm, yet of easiest culture. It will grow |

VERBENA.

usually fragrant. To hasten bloom it 
is better to start the seed in a window 
box or hot bed. The plants should stand 
about a foot apart in the open ground, 
and the flowers cut frequently. Seedling 
verbenas are stronger and less liable to 
disease than others.
