Mammoth Verbena 
Lilliput Zinnia 
Mammoth Dahlia Zinnias 
Max Schling’s Annual . 
MAMMOTH VERBENAS 
Verbenas raised from seed are much more 
vigorous and free flowering than if grown 
from cuttings. Sow in the greenhouse or cold 
frame in March, and transplant to the out- 
door beds in May. They will bloom abun- 
dantly all through the summer and autumn. 
Growing low and spreading, the plants in- 
tertwine and form a dense carpet of green 
foliage, a charming background for bril- 
liantly colored flowers.
