 ^SPLENDOR. (41/^ ft.) — Green foliage. The most im- 

 pressive quality in this Canna is the firm, well- 

 spread-out formation of the flowers, which are an 

 intense scarlet color and very large. It makes 2 to 

 3 bloom heads on each stalk, insuring flowers prac- 

 tically all the time, as new blooms are constantly 

 appearing before the older flowers fade

 gantea." Flower is unusually large, petals broad 

 and borne in great abundance well above the

 pink color as that famous novelty, adding the ad- 

 vantage of handsome bronze foliage.
