On March 21, 1930 the Snyder News reported that it is “Time to Plant Red Verbenas in Snyder.” The Red Verbena was adopted as Snyder’s town flower about three years ago, the movement being sponsored by the Mother’s Self Culture Club. Today, all of the clubs and church organizations are cooperating in this movement… Various towns have adopted their flowers and are giving it a favored place in their yards. It is hoped that there will not be a yard in Snyder without its Red Verbena when planting time is over this spring.” There will be a $100 cash prize for the best display of town flower at a business and a residence. $50.00 for second place.
