Verbena, Floradale Beauty 
Verbenas 
Colorful, dwarf plants, ideal for edgings, ground 
cover, rockeries, porch boxes and cutting. The 
flowers are borne in large trusses from midsummer 
until late fall. Thrive in poor soil and withstand 
drought remarkably well, but dislike freshly manured 
soil. Plant in a sunny location. We offer several 
types and give distinguishing characters with each 
group. All are lovely and fill certain needs. 
GIANT FLOWERED 
Of robust, spreading growth, 8 to 12 in. high, with 
large trusses the individual blooms of which measure 
over 1 in. across. Quick to come into flower.
