DREAR'S MAMMOTH VERBENAS 



We have been carefully selecting and improving 

 this fine strain of Verbenas for years, and can rec- 

 ommend it as the very best procurable. For best 

 and quickest results seed should be sown early in 

 the house or hotbed, and transplanted to flowering 

 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.

 ground is warm, continuing until frost; or they may be potted 

 and kept in bloom through the winter; a fine cut flower, every 

 bud opening when placed in water. 2 feet. (See cut.)

 to sow them where ^they are to bloom, thinning out to pre-
