Mammoth Verbena 
VERBENA 
In rich soil, single plants of this pretty annual 
creeper will carpet a space 3 to 4 feet in diameter. 
For beds, borders, mounds, window-boxes, etc., it 
is particularly fine, and is frequently used as an 
undergrowth to tall plants like lilies. Plants 
raised from seed are cheaper, more vigorous and 
produce more flowers than those grown from cut- 
tings. For early spring bloom, sow under glass in 
February; for later flowers sow in March or April. 
Soak the seed a few hours in tepid water and 
sow in boxes filled with light, rich soil; cover !4 
inch deep, press down firmly and water sparingly. 
When the seedlings are about an inch high, trans- 
plant into other boxes. Use a liberal amount of 
manure in the beds, and set out 10 to 15 inches 
apart each way in May in a sunny situation. The 
plants bloom from early summer until frost.
