WHEN LAYING OUT CIRCULAR BEDS 
Get the tallest-growing varieties in the center, and then carefully grade each succeeding circle, using dwarf kinds for the out- 
side. Plant one Canna in center of bed, next six Cannas 18 inches apart in a circular row 18 inches from center. For each 
succeeding circle use six more Cannas than were used in the previous circle and make it 18 inches farther away from the center. 
A bed thus planted will contain*1 Canna in center, 6 in first circle, 12 in second circle, etc., and all 18 inches apart. 
For a round bed 41% feet across, plant 7 Cannas. For a round bed 16 feet across, plant 91 Cannas. 
For a round bed 7 feet across, plant 19 Cannas. For a round bed 6 feet across, plant 3 Cannas in the center and 
For a round bed Io feet across, plant 37 Cannas. 9 in outside row—12 in all. 
For a round bed 13 feet across, plant 61 Cannas. 
On account of their free-blooming qualities, we strongly recommend the following varieties for planting in beds: Brilliant, 
Buttercup, California, Compte de Bouchard, Gladiator, King Humbert, Pillar of Fire, Pres. McKinley, Venus, 
Wyoming. We recommend planting beds all one color for best effect.
