MISS MARY E. MARTIN, FLORAL PARK, NEW YORK 



The easiest, 

 surest, cheapest 

 and best way to 

 secure thrifty 

 Verbenas, with 

 abundant bloom, 

 is to raise the 

 plants from seed.

 oright and striking colors. Argus-e>ed, striped, mottled 

 and zoned, clear pink, scarlet, white and a hundred inter. 

 mediate shades, with beautiful trusses often over 12 inches 

 in circumference. Start in boxes and transplant early, 

 and you will have a grand show. My seed is the genuine 

 Mammoth strain. Warranted equal to any. Packet, 10c.

VERBENA HYBRIDA. Packet, 5c. 



Verbena OdoratCL. It is so hardy, seed can be sown 

 in the open ground early in the spring, where they will 

 quickly germinate, and in a few weeks be in bloom and give 

 a great profusion of beautiful blossoms all summer. The 

 blossoms, instead of being in clusters like other sorts, run 

 ap into spikes, usually 3 or 4 inches long. Very sweet-scen- 

 ted and pure white. Packet, 5c,

Moss Verbena Plant. 



This new Verbena produces a 

 mass of fine moss-like foliage, 

 and as the branches spread out over the ground in all directions, a 

 lovely carpet of mossy green is formed, above which are borne the 

 delicate clusters of purple-blue blossoms in the wildest profusion. 

 The effect is most charming. It is more hardy and robust than most 

 Verbenas, and blooms in a very short time from seed. It is so de« 

 sirable, novel and; beautiful that it must be classed as one of the 

 great acquisitions. Packet, 5c.
