12 Reliable ^ Cannas $3 Postpaid 



ALL THESE WERE ORIGINATED AND INTRODUCED BY THE CONARD-PYLE CO. 



Nothing gives greater satisfaction for an amazing, unceasing display of color than Cannas. They grow 

 easily, giving more brilliant bloom with less care than anything we know. With little regard for the heat of 

 the summer months, these colorful, care-free gypsies carry on. Planted as borders or in beds of solid color, 

 they keep the lawn or garden fresh with a continuous and unsurpassed show of vivid color. 



All varieties marked with the swastika (Jfi), good-luck sign, after years of severe testing, were introduced 

 by the Conard-Pyle Co. They are universally acclaimed for their high standard of quality. On this page are 

 descriptions of 12 proven favorites.
