New Canna — Mrs. Alfred F. Conard 



THE most popular pink canna ever introduced for 

 planting singly or in beds. Its exquisite salmon 

 pink flowers are of largest size, carried proudly on erect 

 stems 4 feet high. Photo opposite shows a bed of 

 this variety in front of the Main Building of the Dept. of 

 Agriculture, Washington, D. C, where it made a 

 superb and impressive showing for months. 

 Conard & Jones Lily-Cannas produce, from June until 

 frost, a mass of brilliant bloom in all imaginable colors 

 and combinations except blue. Different plants grow 

 from 2 1 to 10 feet high, with large, ornamental leaves 

 and sturdy stalks, tropical in their luxuriance. These 

 most beautiful and spectacular Conard and Jones Lily- 

 Cannas should be used freely for beds, 

 borders, hedges and screens. They bloom all 

 summer long.
