VEEBE'NA, Nat. Ord. Verhcnciceat. Splendid half-hardy perennials. 



To speak of the beauty and effectiveness of the Verbena would be to "paint the lily, or add new perfume to the 

 violet." Verbenas in quantity, are more easily obtained from seed than from cuttings • sown in spring they flower 

 quite earlv in the season. The self-colours are generally to be depended upon, and there is moreover the chance 

 from seedlings of raising new varieties.

VI'OLA (Heartsease or Pansy), Nat. Ord. Viola ceoc. Hardy perennials. 



In the spring floivcr garden the Pansy (viola tricolor) is chief, blooming continuously, and producing a snatch- 

 less effect in designs, beds, and ribbons. From seed the colours cannot be implicitly depended upon ; they should, 

 therefore, be flowered before arranging the planting out. Seed sown in spring, flowers during the summer ; so7vn in 

 summer, flowers in autumn . With a little attention, the PaKsy can be made a charming plant for svmmer 

 decoration. The Viola cornuta and lutea varieties are very important subjects for effective gardening. Viola 

 odorata varieties are prized for their fragrance.
