dispensed with, though J. D. Cabos fades 

 out considerably this dry season. 



Count Horace de Choiseul is giving me 

 good satisfaction thisyear, but did poorly 

 with me the two last seasons. 



Mile, de Cruillion should be planted for 

 its odd tint of yellow, shading to terra 

 cotta; it is a free bloomer. 



Every one should have some plants of 

 C. Ehemanni, whose grand foliage and 

 beautiful drooping carmine flowers, on 

 strong stalks, render it entirely different 

 from other varieties. It is a gem when 

 well grown. There are other good varieties 

 as Paul Bruant. Trocadero, H. Vilmorin, 

 Egandale, etc., that did well with me last 

 year, but the above named are the best 

 this year. Of the newer or later intro- 

 ductions that I am testing or have seen, 

 first stands Koenigen Charlotte, with 

 very brilliant scarlet flowers with a broad 

 band of golden yellow; the flowers are of 

 good size and substance, but the petals 

 are not very broad. 



Paul Sigrist, in color, is an improvement 

 on Mme. Crozy, but the flowers lack sub- 

 stance and do not last well. 



Lemoine's Eldorado is a grand bloom- 

 ing canna, color bright yellow; good sized 

 petals and good substance. 



Columbia, an Iowa raised seedling 

 raised by Ki amer & Son, as seen at the 

 Chicago Exposition, also in 1S92 at 

 Marion, is a magnificent variety; color 

 bright red; flowers large, upright and 

 supporting one another well on the stalk. 

 Orange Perfection, dwarf, orange scarlet, 

 is another variety that I am testing th's 

 year, but I do not think much of it. Flor- 

 erce Vaughan is said to be the same as 

 Antonin Barton, a French novelty of 

 '93, and so it is, with this pointed differ- 

 ence that it was purchased and named by 

 the introducer of it in the fall of 1891, a 

 couple of j'cars before Antonin Barton 

 saw light in America.
