VERBENAS 
The two following varieties, though half-hardy per¬ 
ennials, may easily be treated as annuals: 
8181 Bipinnatifida (Fern-leaved Verbena). Blooming 
c-ontinuously all season the fern-like foliage is almost 
hidden, with large, flat clusters of beautiful lavender 
blue flowers. No matter what the weather may be 
the plants remain in good condition until killed by 
frost. Pkt. 25c. 
8182 Bonariensis. Growing to a height of 4 ft. this 
lovely variety bears during July and August numer¬ 
ous terminal sprays of rosy lavender. Though a hardy 
perennial it is easily grown as a half-hardy annual 
and promises to become a valuable addition to our 
list of plants grown for cutting. Pkt. 50c.
