IN Golden Wings we have a grand sort decorated in a 

 unique manner. Through a golden field are scattered 

 irregular spots and blotches of deep brownish crimson 

 and orange scarlet, with great patches of color in the center 

 of the flowers. No Orchid is more generously endowed 

 than this in the distribution of colors; no butterfly is more 

 pleasingly decorated. It is with the purpose of accentuat- 

 ing this rare coloring that we have given it the title of the 

 "Butterfly" Canna as the only appropriate one fitting its 

 appearance; at a little distance the flowers look like golden 

 butterflies fluttering above the green leaves. The natural 

 height is four and a half feet, splendid foliage and branch- 

 ing flower stalks. Price, $4.00 per dozen.
