NEW 
“BUTTERFLY” (anna, 
N Golden Wings we havea grand sort decorated in a 
i 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 centre 
of the flowers. No Orchid is more generously endowed than 
this in the distribution of colors; no butterfly is more pleas- 
ingly decorated. Itis with the purpose of accentuating this 
rare coloring that we have given it the title of the ‘“‘ Butter- 
jly” Canna as the only appropriate one fitting its appearance ; 
at alittle distance the flowers look like golden butterflies 
fluttering above the green leaves. The natural height is 
four and a half feet, splendid foliage and branching flower 
stalks. Price, 60c. each, $6.00 per doz.

and vigorous, its natural height being rarely more than four feet.
