These are richly veined with gold and much larger than those of the old type. There is as much difference between the "Emperor" variety and the old type as between the improved varieties of Petunias and the common. The throat is wide open and short, and the edge of the flower is not so deeply incurved as with the old type. Mixed colors. 10c. VERBENA.
