Verbena Hybrida 
Grandiflora Crimson 
Glow (Bodger) 
I N ALL the rather long list oi 
Hybrida Grandiflora Verbena 
varieties there has been none in a 
crimson shade until our present in¬ 
troduction, Crimson Glow, which 
now provides this very necessary 
shade to round out the color range. 
The flowers are pure, self-colored, 
glowing crimson, wholly without 
even a small light eye. The indi¬ 
vidual florets are of good size, al¬ 
though as is characteristic of the 
reds in Verbena, they are not as 
large as some other colors, such as pink and lavender. The flower heads are 
freely produced on plants which are neat and semi-compact in habit, bearing 
foliage of the small type associated with Coccinea and Lucifer. Crimson Glow is 
one of the most vivid Verbena colors, and will occupy a prominent place in next 
season's gardens.

Cosmos Sensation Finest Mixed 
Award of Merit 1936 All America Selections 
F OR the short time it has been on the market Cosmos Sensation has earned 
for itself a remarkably permanent position in the garden world. The flowers 
are mammoth in size, 4 to 5 inches in 
diameter, with broad, heavy fluted 
petals carried on very long strong 
stems. It is extremely early flowering, 
blooming in 10 weeks from the time of 
seeding. The plants make a rather 
heavy growth of foliage, reach a 
height of about 4 feet, are free 
blooming, and while the flowers are 
unusually large at all times, plants 
may be disbudded for even larger 
flowers for the cut flower trade. The 
mixture contains white, and shades 
of rose and pink.
