Dreer’s Mammoth Verbenas 
We have been carefully selecting and improving 
this fine strain of Verbenas for years, and can recom- 
mend it as the very best procurable. The trusses and 
individual flowers are of the largest size, of brilliant 
colors, free-blooming and of vigorous habit, For best 
and quickest results seed should be sown early in the 
house or hotbed, and transplanted to flowering quar- 
ters 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)
