6 to 7 ft. This Canna out- 

 strips exaggreratlon. We 

 believe it Is, without ex- 

 ception, the largest Canna 

 In existence. Like the 

 Statue of Liberty, It over- 

 tops anything of a sim- 

 ilar nature that can be 

 compared with It. Its foli- 

 age is bronze, leaves half 

 as large again as Its near- 

 est rival, and of a rich, 

 luxuriant, ebony shade. It 

 holds aloft a fiery flaming 

 flower, orchid-type, blaz- 

 ing flame-red in color. The 

 flowers are of large size 

 and good form. The effect 

 is massive and impressive.

 President" is superior to 

 any other red variety In 

 the quantity and also qual- 

 ity of bloom, and the firm 

 flowers resist drought and 

 heat to a remarkable de- 

 gree. A large bed of this 

 variety was planted last 

 year in front of the White 

 House and received the. 

 unqualified admiration of 

 every lover of Cannas. 

 "The President" has proved 

 to be the most satisfactory 

 red Canna ever produced.

Best by test, you'd say, if you'd follow Mr. Wintzer in his work of the past twenty years — improving the size, 

 shape, color, texture "and endurance. The newer sorts remind you of Mallow Marvels in size and of Orchids in color 

 effects. It's time to make your plans and time to order, too. Select from the following list and you'll get winners:

ft. This Is the richest col- 

 ored Canna we know — a 

 velvety, oriental carmine 

 or translucent cerise. It Is 

 unusually attractive, with 

 its large flowers of tropical 

 magnificence held on firm, 

 straight stems in rich 

 bouquets well above the 

 soft green foliage. Prac- 

 tically every stalk pro- 

 duces at least two heads 

 of bloom. 3 for $2.50, 10

if; CAHOE^ABBA. 5 ft. After 



22 years of painstaking 



c r o s s-hybrldizing, Mr. 



Wintzer has succeeded In 



producing this prodigy. 



Three to five flower 



branches on each stalk at 



one time is the average, 



and every single branch is 



ablaze with a torch-like 



flame of fiery orange-scar- 

 let bloom. The branches 



are erect and sturdy; the 



foliage Is rich green, and 



very vigorous. Our 1921 



stock plants of this mar- 

 velous Canna have renew- 

 ed our enthusiasm for its 



beautiful color and unpar- 

 alleled production of bloom.

dark, olive-green foliage, 



shaded with bronze. An 



early bloomer with large, 



old-rose-plnk flowers borne 



on strong, bronzy stems. 



The pink flowers mounted 



upon bronze foliage make 



this Canna very distinct 



and its dwarf habit makes 



it especially valuable. S

 supply of new-crop red clover seed the 

 world over is undoubtedly smaller than 

 that of last year. In some of the Euro- 

 pean countries, particularly Italy, quan- 

 tities of old seed still remain in grow- 

 ers' and dealers' hands. These quanti- 

 ties, however, are not considered at this 

 time to be nearly so large as the export- 

 able surplus at a corresponding time 

 last year.
