The Verbena has been wonderfully improved during the past fifty years in form and size of 

 flower truss and thrives particularly well in American soil. For masses in beds on the lawn 

 no plant excels it. In the varieties may be found every color from white through lilac and 

 rose to purple and very dark purplish blue, as well as striped sorts. If sown in open ground 

 in May they will bloom in August, but if started in the house in pots in winter they will flower sooner and may be had 

 in constant bloom from June even until after the early, light frosts. Seed should be soaked in lukewarm water before 

 planting and care taken that the soil be very rich. Verbenas can be grown from cuttings, but seedlings are more 

 vigorous and produce more flowers, all being showy and often the clusters have a delicate fragrance. Half hardy peren- 

 nial trailer which has gained much in popularity through treatment as an annual.
