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 vigorous habit, For best results seed 
should be sown early in the house or hotbed, and trans- 
planted to flowering quarters in May. Verbenas are 
better grown from seed than from cuttings, being more 
vigorous and not liable to disease. (See cut.)

SEEDS OF WATER LILIES. 
We annually save a quantity of seed of the leading Water Lilies at our 
Aquatic Gardens, Riverton, N. J., and which we offer below. The raising 
of Aquatics from seed is a comparatively simple process, and most of them 
flower the first year, their growth in a few months being marvellous. Full 
details for growing are given in our levflet, Aquatic Plants and How to 
Grow Them, a copy of which we will be pleased to send on application, 
All of the varieties offered are described on pages 203 to 212.
