No. 1950. 



CANNA PALLIDA var. 



Class. Order. 



MONA NDRIA MONOG YNIA 



Our highly-valued friend, the late Mr, 

 Roscbe, in his splendid work on the Scita- 

 minese, has figured this plant, and describes 

 it as being from the West Indies. We 

 raised ours from seeds received from Mr. 

 Deppe, at Xalapa. It flowered in the 

 month of May. Like the other Cannas 

 (which it much resembles in habit and 

 growth) it will increase by separating the 

 roots, which ought to be planted in rich 

 loam, and kept in the stove.
