RELIABLE FLOWER SEEDS, 
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 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. We offer the follow- 
ing colors:
