SALVIA ST, LOUIS. 



VERBENA. ELLEN WILLMOTT 



Of recent introduction and one of the most meritorious Noveliies 

 amongst the Verbenas. It differs widely from all other Verbenas, being 

 the only one of erect habit, growing from 12 to 18 inches in height and pro- 

 ducing large heads of very showy, bright carmine flowers with a dark eye, 

 blooming from the early part of Summer till late in the Fall. 



When first shown in London and Continental markets where it is 

 highly appreciated, this Verbena proved to be a ready money maker. It 

 makes a fine pot plant, is equally valuable as a cut flower and an excellent 

 bedding plant and no Garden should be without this striking new variety. 

 It is readily propagated from cuttings, and fine pot plants may be had 

 quickly bv planting from 3 to S rooted cuttings into a 5-in. pot. Each, 50c.; 

 6 for S2.50; 13 for 84.00.
