 Mr. Wm. F. Kasting, 



Dear Sir — In our trial grounds this year, the Canna, Mrs. Wm. F. Kasting, was by 

 far the best oi its class; both in richness o{ coloring and in freedom of bloom. It has 

 been a sheet of dazzling crimson from June up to the present time and promises to be good 

 for a month to come. I consider it a most valuable acquisition and shall need a large bed 

 of it next year. Respectfully, JOHN F. COWELL.

Hardy Perennials 



This class of plants, familiarly kntiwn as Old-fasKioned 

 Hardy Garden Klo-wers, has come into jjublic favor 

 again so rapidly as to astonish even the most siinguine en- 

 thusiast of these gems of the garden. Their popularity is not 

 at all surprising when we consider the many varied and 

 pleasant changes which take place throughout the entire 

 growing season in a well-arranged hardy border, in which 

 every week, yes, almost every day, brings forth something 

 fresh and new. Karly flowering varieties open up their 

 flowers often before snow has entirely disappeared, and con- 

 tinuing with constantly changing variety throughout the 

 summer until late in fall, when severe freezing weather only 

 will stop persistent late bloomers. ■
