Verbena ha 



Few flowers are more deserving of a place in the home-garden than the 

 Verbena. They produce their large heads of flowers in great profusion and 

 over a long season. Our description will give you but a faint idea of what fully 

 developed Verbena plants, carrying dozens of these beautiful flowers, would 

 look like in your garden. What impresses us most of all in connection with 

 Verbenas is their utter dependability. They had a very poor spot indeed 

 in our trial-grounds. Notwithstanding, they proved that they might truly 

 be called the flower for all seasons. They thrive and bloom handsomely 

 until frost. Pkt _ Uoz _
