4330 Hy brida. The introduction 
of new, early and continuous 
flowering Tritomas has _ given 
them a prominent place among 
hardy bedding plants. It is not 
generally known that they are 
readily grown from seed, many 
flowering the first year if sown 
early. The seed we offer has 
been saved from our own col- 
lection, which is undoubtedly 
the finest in this country. Of 
course, for immediate results it 
will be better to get plants, 
but raising them from seed is

DREER’S MAMMOTH VERBENAS. 
We have been carefully selecting and improving this fine 
strain of Verbenas for years, and can recommend it as the 
very best procurable. The trusses and individual flowers are 
of the largest size, of brilliant colors, free-blooming and of vig- 
orous habit. For best and quickest results seed should be 
sown early in the house or hotbed, and transplanted to flow- 
ering quarters in May, If sown outdoors in May, it blooms 
from the end of July on. Verbenas are better grown from 
seed than from cuttings, being more vigorous and not liable 
to disease. (See cut. )
