plants are of the same habit as the perennial kinds, producing fine heads of bloom of various colors — white, crim¬ 
son, rose-pink, etc., many of which are broadly edged with white and sweetly fragrant.

NEW HYBRID TRiTOMAS 
3, P9_ 
‘Flame Flowers. ’ etc., are among 
producing the brightest flowers of the autumn garden. These 
new hybrids, crosses between early and late flowering species, are 
particularly beautiful and varied. They grow from seed and 
flower well the second year commencing in May and continue 
to bloom throughout the summer and fall. They range in 
color through shades and combinations of yellows from pale 
lemon to orange and from salmon-pink, coral-red, etc., to crim¬ 
son. The plants vary in height from 18 inches to 6 feet. 
The effect of a bold group of these lovely hybrids is remarkably 
distinctive and handsome. Pkt. 25c. 
VERBENA Henderson's Mammoth 
This distinct and beautiful race we originated, introduced and 
named. The average trusses measure 9 to 12 inches in cir¬ 
cumference and the individual florets on properly grown plants 
over 1 inch across—or larger than a 25c.. silver piece. They 
bloom freely, are vigorous in growths and • contain 'beautiful 
new colors and shades. For garden beds and massing these 
Verbenas are unrivaled; flowers of the most brilliant colors pro¬ 
duced continually from spring until late in the autumn. Al¬ 
though perennials, these form luxuriant plants and bloom the first 
season from seed. ( See cut.) ■ ..... , , - <
