GET YOUR CANNAS FROM THE ORIGINATORS 



For more than thirty years we have been improving the Canna. Most of the varieties 

 on the following list were originated by our Mr. Antoine Wintzer. Park Superintendents in 

 many of our large cities order these Cannas in large quantities yearly. The U. S. Department 

 of Agriculture buys every year from us, new and improved kinds like Mrs. Pierre S. Du Pont, 

 the grandest pink. These big buyers know how vastly better the new Cannas are. Better 

 because of their size, their purity and richness of color, their firm and erect flower heads. 

 Indeed, they should mean as much to the Canna world as Hugonis or Souv. de Claudius Pernet 

 do to Roses. 



Many visiting nurserymen told us last Summer that they planted a few of these new 

 Cannas and were surprised at the interest of their customers. A few of these on your place will 

 advertise you and convince your customers of their merits, besides adding distinction to your 

 grounds. Why not mail your trial order now? Here are some suggestions.

Plant 1 in the center, 6 in the first circle, 12 in the second circle, then 18, 24, etc., according 

 to the size of the bed with the circles, and the plants in the circles 18 inches apart. A bed 

 4 feet in diameter takes 7 Cannas; a 7-foot bed, 19 cannas; a 10-foot bed, 37 Cannas; a 

 16-foot bed, 91 Cannas.
