VERBENA 



The Verbena is one of the most popular of garden annuals for summer 

 bedding. They grow low and the plants intertwine, forming a dense carpet 

 of green foliage and producing large trusses of flowers abundantly from June 

 until frost. They are particularly adapted for window-boxes and for color- 

 schemes in the garden. For best results, seeds should be sown early in the 

 house or hotbed and transplanted to the garden late in May. 1 ft. 



The Giant Varieties offered below are a magnificent new strain of Ver- 

 benas of robust and compact habit, with enormous trusses, the individual 

 florets measuring over an inch in diameter. Pl^^
