1960s Verbena ‘Blaze’ Dow Gardens Midland MI Postcard

Feast your eyes on VERBENA ‘BLAZE’ at Dow Gardens, captured in all its mid-century glory. This vintage postcard is a riot of red: so intensely saturated it practically vibrates off the glossy chrome print. The flowers pop in a way that’s more “Hollywood technicolor garden fever dream” than naturalistic botanical, and yes… the reds are borderline screaming, the greens are unnervingly lurid, and the gloss can make the whole scene feel like it’s glaring at you.
