 flowers arc immense^ often seven inches across, with petals two and a half inches broad, borne 

 in splendid branching spikes, on strong tree-like plants, six to seven feet high. A tremendous

NOTE.— These Special Collections are arranged for the convenience of our customers, and include some of our finest Cannas. All Cannas 

 we send out, both Dormant Roots and Potted Tlants, are read3' for planting at once, a, soon as the ground is warm and weather settled, but if 

 received carliei than this, thev should be grown in pots or boxes in the house till time to set cut, as they cannot bear much cold. They 

 grow very easily, and our Dormant Roots, with proper treatment, >vill bloom nearly as quickly as the Potted Plants. Please notice, however, 

 that dormant Roots can only be furnished up to May l«t. After that tir.ie we have Potted Plants only, and when Dormant Roots 

 cannot be sent, we will send equal value in Potted Plants It is always best, v hen convenient, to have potted Cannas sent by express so 

 that some earth can be left on the roots, and as we make a special reduction to thoie who order sent by express ; it costs very little more, and is 

 the best way for started plants. Information as to cost by expressage will be furnished when desired. Full directions how to plant, come with 

 each order, and all Cannas sent out are distinctly labelled, so that it becomes an easy matter to arrange the tall Cannas in the center and dwarf
