Cannas For Circular Beds 



Selected For Height and Color 



Space does not permit naming more than a few- 

 choice beds here, but customers can select for 

 themselves by using page 29 as a guide and being 

 careful to choo?e the tallest growing kinds for the 

 center of circular beds or for the back of beds 

 along walls or fences. Years of experience have 

 proved to us that beds all one variety and of 

 medium height make the showiest effect Try a 

 bed of Mrs. Alfred F. Conard, Olympic, Wm. Saun- 

 ders, Meteor or any of the kinds listed on page 29.

How to Plant Circular Beds 



Get the tallest-growing varieties in the center, 

 and then carefully grade each succeeding circle, 

 using dwarf kinds for the outside. 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 7-foot bed 

 thus planted will contain 1 Canna in the center, 6 

 in first circle, 12 in outside circle, all 18 inches apart 

 and the bed when planted will have the last row 6 

 inches from the edge to allow proper growth or 

 room for a border of edging plants.
