ANNUAL AND PERENNIAL FLOWER SEEDS 
ZINNIA SCABIOUS FLOWERED 
VERBENA 
One of the most popular garden annuals for beds and mass¬ 
ing and for a gorgeous display during the Summer months 
cannot be excelled, commencing to flower in July and con¬ 
tinuing until frost. 
Verbena Hybrida Grandiflora Crimson Glow. The flowers are 
pure, self-colored, glowing crimson, wholly without even a 
small light eye. The individual 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. 
Crimson Glow is one of the most vivid Verbena colors, and 
will occupy a prominent place in next season’s gardens. Pkt.
