New Imported 
Mammoth Verbena 
"Rose Queen" 
New Mammoth 
Verbena 
"ROSE QUEEN" 
This beautiful floral novelty comes from 
Benary, the great flower seed specialist 
of Germany. It is one of the grandest 
Verbenas of modern times and is destined 
to become a standard for all the mammoth 
strains. 
The color is a brilliant rose, and each 
individual flower of a well-grown plant 
measures an inch to an inch and a quarter 
across, or, in other words, each petal will 
cover the face of a fifty-cent piece. The petals lie so close 
together that the corolla hardly shows any indentations.
