5RADESCANTIA. 
The following varieties of Tradescantia (often called Wandering Tew) have 
beautifully market! foliage, and are fine for hanging baskets and vases, or for house 
culture, as they will endure almost any hardship if liberally supplied with water. 
Zcbrina. Leaves dark green, with a silvery stripe. lo cents. 
MiUUc^Ior. Beautifully striped with white, crimson and olive green ; sometimes sports. 
VERBENAS. 
The Verbena IS too well known to need any recommenda'ion. It commences 
to flower and spread from the first day the plants are set, until late in the autumn 
every day becoming better and handsomer. If Verbenas are pegged down to the 
ground as they grow, the plants will extend rapidly, and afford a much greater 
amount of bloom than if allowed to grow up, when they become “ straggling.” There 
are several hundred varieties in cultivation, from which we have selected the follow- 
ing hst as being vigorous growers and free bloomers. This list contains the cream 
of the old varieties, the Mammoth strain (of which the individual flowers are each 
as large as a twenty-five cent piece), and the latest introductions.
