 across; indiridual petals 3 to &%

 consider an ImproTement rather than 

 a defect. Each, 10c: Dozen, |1.00;

 KINO HUMBEBT— Scarlet flowers, 

 bronze leaves, greatest favorite today. 

 This remarkable gold medal Canna

 eight years. It is a cross between

 features of both, the large flowers 

 of one with the free blooming char- 

 acter of the other, and the hand- 

 some broad, tropical foliage. 4 ft.
