New Giant Verbenas 
African Daisy 
Venidium fastuosum 
This is a new flower from 
South Africa, and because of its 
form—not its color—is called 
African Daisy. The 2- to 3-foot 
plants carry numerous, large, 
orange, daisy-like flowers marked 
with a purple-black zone at base 
of petals. Makes a most striking 
effect in the border. Seed should 
be sown in a sunny place, in 
warm soil. The plants require 
plenty of sunshine and not too 
much water. Pkg. 15c.
