ORDER YOUR CANNAS 



WITH AN EYE TO COLOR AND HEIGHT 



But we suggest that you first pick 

 out the varieties you like best and then plan 

 to arrange them on your lawn so the colors will 

 harmonize and the low growing kinds will be in 

 front of the tall ones. (See page 59, "How to 

 Plant and Grow.") See also "Ready-made" 



Canna Beds, page 58. 



•BUTTERCUP— 3 feet. True bright buttercup yellow; large 

 beautifully formed flowers in fine, large handsome trusses; 

 stands unfavorable weather better than most any other 

 kind, and always shows up bright and clear, and is un- 

 doubtedly the best and most beautiful pure bright, deep 

 canary yellow Canna in existence. Price, 20c. each; $2.00 

 per dozen, postpaid; $14.00 per 100, by express.
