Dingee & Conard Company. 



S A DECORATIVE PLANT for garden culture the Canna has no equal, and no other 

 plant having an equally tropical effect is so desirable for house culture. It is not likely 

 that any new flower will create such a furore in the floral world as did our superb New 

 Canna Flamingo, introduced and illustrated in our new Spring Guide of this year. It 

 is the Canna a name for which we gave a cash prize of one hundred dollars. Of the 

 thousands submitted in competition, "Flamingo" was the name selected as the most 

 appropriate and suggestive. 

 Por Pot Culture it is impossible to conceive of anything more striking than "Flamingo." No 



costly exotic plant nor Palm nor Fern can surpass it in beauty, richness of 



color, grace of outline, ease of culture and earliness, profusion and certainty of bloom. It rarely 



grows more 

 than three 

 feet indoors, 

 and com- 

 mences to 

 bloom when 

 but 6 to 8 in- 

 ches from the

It is hardly ever without flowers. ? h f individual flowers 



* inches m diameter, are 



and cluster around the stem in an even manner such as to give it the appears 

 cinth spike. Of the color it need only be said that it is an intense glowing ca 

 or blemish of any kind. Imagine a plant of Flamingo crowned with three to 

 spikes, thus presenting an array of gorgeous color, relieved by a background of: 

 foliage, and it will at once be conceded that we have a plant that for brilliancy ol 

 tive decorative value is unequaled by any plant now known. Flamingo soldreadil

 for that reason we make the price low, so that it may become more widely dissemim

 test of critical comparison, but will stand out as the most magnificent all-around Canna ii
