WINTZER'S WONDERS 



Marvelous flowers are these, veritably 

 mammoth in size, in every imaginable shade 

 from dazzling red to sunset tints of gold, in 

 combinations that make one simply marvel 

 at the work of nature. But the work of 

 nature in this case was directed by the skill- 

 ful hand of our Vice President, Antoine 

 Wintzer. For the past 15 years, by hybrid- 

 izing, he has been producing each year newer 

 and larger flowers, more exquisitely colored 

 and finer in every way. Each year we thus 

 have an increasing number of new and un- 

 named Seedling Cannas from which we select 

 the new introductions for which we have won 

 so great a reputation. 



In selecting from these Seedling Cannas a 

 few new ones to name and introduce, we 

 usually pass over 1000 or more beautiful kinds 

 almost as good, and it is these choice seed- 

 lings that we now propose to share with you. 



They are blood relations of our prize win- 

 ning sorts and by visitors to our Canna fields 

 are admired quite as much, but because they 

 are not named we are going to sell them cheap, 

 so you are really getting Cannas in the same 

 class as our $2.00 kinds for only 25 cents, as 

 follows :
