TRACHELIUM 
A free-growing greenhouse annual or biennial, 
having large cloudlike heads of tiny flowers 
somewhat resembling Gypsophila. Height about 
18 inches. If large plants are required, a sowing 
should be made at the end of June, and the 
seedlings grown steadily on, repotted as needed 
up to the 10- or 12-inch size. In this way fine 
specimens 5 feet in height may be obtained. 
Does well outdoors in sheltered positions.

Mauve and white. 
VENIDIUM 
Sow the seeds in April or early May, and avoid 
excessive moisture. Germination is difficult if 
sowings are made too early, but may often be 
facilitated by exposing the seed pans or boxes 
to direct sunshine. 
4622. Sutton’s Hybrid Art Shades 
Per packet 40c 
Half-hardy annual. An entirely new race of 
Venidium. The most attractive feature is the

pure white to orange shades, through ivory, 
cream, lemon, yellow, and straw tinged with 
buff, mostly set off by glistening black centers 
and maroon markings at the base of the ray- 
petals. Height 2 to 3 feet. 
VISCARIA 
Besides being one of the most beautiful of our 
hardy annuals, Viscaria is also one of the easiest 
to grow. It is extremely free flowering, and 
makes most brilliant clumps in the annual bor- 
der. For blooming outdoors seed may be sown in 
the open during March, April, or May, or in Sep- 
tember for early flowering. Height, except Sut- 
ton’s Rosy Queen, 1 foot.

Ver hena 
Half-Hardy Perennial 
Verbenas are extremely popular subjects for 
summer bedding, and when cut the flowers make 
an attractive decoration in vases. Seedling Ver- 
benas are models of health and vigor, and if 
raised from January to the beginning of March 
will bloom abundantly during the summer and 
autumn of the same year. Sow in boxes, prick 
off into pots singly, and gradually harden for 
planting out. In March and April sowings may 
be made ina frame. Verbenas are also sown on 
prepared beds, and transplanted as they become
