Possibly you don’t realize how much pleasure you can have from good 
Verbenas. Grow them along the front of a flower-bed, along a walk or drive¬ 
way, in beds by themselves, as a ground-cover around perennials, or in 
porch boxes. 
They make a continuous bright showing of flowers for 3 to 4 months, and 
they are beautiful to pick for table decorations. 
Do not sow the seed outdoors until the soil gets warm (May 15th to 
June 1st). May also be started earlier indoors to advantage. Grows only 6 to 
12 inches tall, but spreads to 2 feet across.
