We were awarded the highest premium for Mme. Crozy at the World's Columbian 

 Exposition, Chicago, 1893. 

 Dwarf Large-flowered French. In this new class of Cannas we have something of pronounced merit for bedding — 

 either in rows or large clumps — and for winter flowering in pots they are of scarcely less value. Tke foliage is luxuriant 

 and the plants dwarf in habit. Their great merit, however, lies in the large size and brilliant hues of the flowers, rang- 

 ing through all shades of yellow and orange to the richest crimson, scarlet and vermilion ; some are also beautifully 

 spotted. Seed sown in a hot-bed or greenhouse from January to April will produce flowering plants in July. (See cut.}

 in such profusion that they crown the plant with a blaze of glowing color. The habit of the plant is compact and 

 vigorous, its natural height being rarely more than four feet, but the flowers form when it is scarcely a foot high, and 



continue coming on the plants until frost 1ft
