Alt>honse Boavier. 5 ft. Of gneat richness of 

 oul( »r. Lai g»* tt< >wers of a deep velvety crimson, 

 shaded dazzling red. A remarkably free 

 bloomer of immense trusses on strong stems. 

 It is one of the most effective for bedding. 

 Austria. 6 ft. A giant-flowered variety, and of 

 special A-alue for massive foliage effects.

 and are a bright, clear canan.--yellow.

 free gro\^'' 



AUernania. 



Chas. Henderson. 2h to 3 ft. One of the most 

 popular soits. Large clusters of deep, bright 

 erims^jn color, and abundant, deep green 

 foliage. The standard crimson variety for 

 bedding, by reason of its compact, dwarf habit, 

 large size of flower and truss, and brilliancy of 

 color. An excellent variety also for vases 

 and tubs. 



fgandale. 4 ft. Handsome, dark maroon and 

 green foliage, erect and compact. The spikes 

 of bloom are large and of fine form ; of bright 

 chenw-red color, forming a fijie combination 

 and harmony of color with its foliage. A 

 vigorous grower, free bloomer and the finest 

 bronze-leaved variety.

 clusters. Florets large and of good form, a 

 beautiful shell-pink color, turning to amber;

 yellow, heavily mottled with deep orange- 

 scarlet. Flowers large and of perfect form, in 

 splendid trusses and verv' profuse. One of the 

 finest of its color, and a splendid variety in 

 everv wav. 



Golden Bedder. What is said on the preceding 

 page of Crimson Bedder applies to this variety, 

 except it is still dwarfer m habit t2h ft.j; the 

 foliage is light green in color, is smaller, as are 

 also its florets, which are a bright golden-yeUou: 

 throughout, except a trace of red at base of the 

 small lower petal. An excellent companion for 

 Crimson Bedder. 



J. T. Lovett. 5 ft. The nearest approach to per- 

 fnction in foliage of any Canna I have yet seen, 

 rivaling a Banana in beauty. So enduring is it 

 that its first leaves remain clean, bright and 

 perfect until ground freezes, and its rich, deep, 

 olive-gieen foliage is seldom or never injured 

 by wind, rain or §un. The florets are large 

 and long, set in a loose, open, drooping cluster 

 after the manner of the once popular Eheman- 

 ni, but in color are a rich crimson-lake, and 

 are freely produced early, late, and all the 

 time. For graceful habit, exquisite foliage, 

 and for effect in maasing, it is without an 

 equal.

 open flowers of bright canary-yellow, broadly 

 blotched and spotted with rich, reddish choco- 

 • late. A unique and very distinct variety.

 net red. The spikes are produced in great
