 freely. The flower

LITTLE SILVER. N. J. 55 

 A most distinct and beautiful 



or apricot, sometimes 

 brightened with a pink- 

 ish tinge, a shade of col- 

 or that is entirely 

 unique. It is a fine 

 grower and an early, 

 profuse and continuous 

 bloomer. 



I>1ADAI>IE CROZY. Tak- 

 en all in all, the best scar- 

 let Cauna ever introduc- 

 ed. Flowers exceedingly 

 large with good round 

 petals opening wide, and 

 dazzling crimson-scarlet 

 bordered with golden 

 yellow. The flowers are large and are produced in the 

 greatest profusion! Dwarf, and vigorous habit, with 

 massive, and abundant cheerful green, Musa-like foli- 

 age. It can be had in bloom the year round. Though 

 well known by everybody it remains the most popular 

 Canna in cultivation. 



Secretary Stewart. Dark garnet flowers; spike very 

 large and open. Green foliage. 4^ feet. 



PAUL BRUANT. 

 Very ornament- 

 al and one of the 

 most abundant 

 bloomers of all. 

 Foliage is a beau- 

 tiful deep green, 

 edged with pur- 

 ple, and of dwarf 

 habit. The flow- 

 er-heads are of 

 the largest size, 

 thrown up well 

 above the foliage, 

 and the color is 

 very distinct and 

 conspicuous; an 

 intense, brilliant, 

 orange scarlet, 

 producing a goi - 

 geous blaze of color in the full sunlight. It is sure to 

 give the most satisfactory results and all who plant it 

 will be delighted. 



flowers larger than 

 any other. The color 

 is peculiar to itself and 

 may be described as 

 bright salmon-scarlet 

 with silvery lustre. 

 Too much praise can 

 hardly be given this exquisitely beautiful variety. 



President Carnot. One of the finest of the dark 

 leaved sorts, very distinct and an excellent ornamental 

 plant. The heads of bloom are numerous and large, 

 with beautiful, large fiowers of bright orange-scarlet, 

 sufl:used with pink. Foliage brilliant, chocolate ma- 

 roon, exceedingly handsome. Desirable and effective 

 for bedding; a good grower and free bloomer. Height 

 2,}4 feet. 



Woi. Elliott. The best ornamental-leaved Canna as 

 yet offered. The foliage is 

 erect, broad and well-rounded, 

 with the edges finely frilled or 

 crimped and as highly colored 

 as the most brilhant Dracaenas. 

 The prevailing tint may be best 

 described as a beautiful crim- 

 son-purple, bright in- on the 

 young shoots and shading into 

 bronze on the older leaves. 

 Nothing can exceed the rich- 

 ness of shading on a group of 

 this gi'and Canna; its habit be- 

 ing to throw up many shoots, 

 thus making the foliage very 

 dense and full. Flowers bright red, but small and un- 

 important. Planted with Caladium esculentum or 

 some variety of Canna of proper height and rich green 

 foliage, such as Chas. Henderson, Paul Bruant or Mad. 

 Crozy as a background, the effect is most elegant, trop- 

 ical and pleasing. Ea., 20c; 8 for 50c; doz., $1.50; 100, 

 $10.00.
