CREAM OF CANNA CREATIONS 



S 



tfi THE PRESIDENT, THE GRANDEST RED CANNA IN EXISTENCE 



Height 4 feet. In color, a rich, glowing scarlet, and the immense, firm rounded flowers, 7 inches across 

 when open, are produced on strong, erect stalks well above the large, rich green foliage. "The President" 

 is superior to any other red variety in the quantity and also quality of bloom, and the firm flowers resist 

 drought and heat to a remarkable degree. A large bed cf this variety was planted on the grounds of the 

 Washington Monument, Washington, D. C. Another "President" Canna bed was on the Garden Pier at 

 Atlantic City, while several more were to be seen in the largest public parks in this country where these beautiful 

 flowers received the unqualified admiration of every Canna-lover. Naturally, a tremendous demand has 

 been created. Strcng roots ready now. Plants early in April. 



PRICE, $2.00 FOR 10. 



$15.00 PER HUNDRED.

 Canna. 



Carinas produce more color in greater variety for a longer period over a wider area for the outlay than any 



other plant. But do not confuse these Cannas with the common kinds — their monkey ancestors — which 



we consider not worth planting. Conard & Jones' Good ifi Luck Cannas are absolutely unsurpassed and they 



rank with orchids in delicacy of coloring and with Mallow Marvels in size. 



The conspicuous successes of our Cannas in every competition at international 



expositions, both here and in Europe, in which they have been entered, enables ui 



to say, without reserve, that C. & J. Cannas lead in the Canna world. 



Our Vice-President, Antoine Wintzer. has devoted twenty-two years of 

 patient work to developing the wonderful flowers that can now be had by 

 everyone, and no flowers grown compare in gorgeous tropical bloom with 

 the C. & J. Cannas of today. 



(Extract from the Florist's Review, September 28, 1919.) 



I have been much impressed with some of the new Cannas 

 that I have tried this summer, and cannot refrain from mentioning 

 two. These are The President and Snow Queen. President 

 is by all odds the best red Canna today, larger and better than 

 Firebird and a free bloomer; the foliage is strong and does not 

 burn, as does that of Firebird. Those who have tried Firebird 

 and lamented that it would not do on account of diseased 

 foliage will rejoice to know that at last we have a Canna that 

 is right.' " — Floyd Bralliar. "The most sensational introduction 

 of recent years.'' — From another firm's catalog. 



C. & J. 1920 NOVELTIES— ORDER NOW 



!fi AMERICAN BEAUTY. Height 5 feet. This is the richest 

 colored Canna we know — a velvety oriental carmine or 

 translucent cerise. It is unusually attractive, with its large 

 flowers of tropical magnificence held on firm, straight 

 stems in rich bouquets well above the soft green foliage. 

 Practically every stalk produces at least two heads of 

 bloom. Price, $2.50 each, postpaid. From 4 - inch 

 pots in April. 



!fi CANDELABRA. Height 5 feet. After twenty-two years of 

 painstaking cross-hybridizing, Mr. Wintzer has succeeded 

 in producing this prodigy. Three to five flower branches 

 on each stalk at one time is the average, and every single branch is ablaze with 

 a torch-like flame of fiery orange-scarlet bloom. The branches are erect and sturdy; 

 the foliage is rich green, and very vigorous. Our 1920 stock plants of this marvelous 

 Canna have renewed our enthusiasm for its beautiful color and unparalleled pro- 

 duction of bloom. Price. $2.50 each, postpaid. From 4-inch pots in April. 



!fi STATUE OF LIBERTY. Height 6 to 7 feet. This Canna outstrips exaggeration. 

 We believe it is, without exception, the largest Canna in existence. Like the Statue 

 of Liberty, it overtops anything of a similar nature that can be compared with it. 

 Its foliage is bronze, leaves half as large again as its nearest rival, and of a rich, 

 uxuriant, ebony shade. It holds aloft a fiery flaming flower, orchid-type, blazing 

 flame-red in color. The flowers are of large size and good form. The effect is massive 

 and impressive. Price, $2.50 each, postpaid. From 4-inch pots in April.
