SUMMER FLOWERING BULBS 



These summer-flowering bulbs arc very easily grown, and 

 during the summer furnish for the house and table beautiful 

 blooms for decorating purposes. They are not partciular as 

 to soil so long as it is fairly rich. 



Cannas 



These wonderful bedding plants give uniformly good re- 

 sults in all sections of the country. They succeed in any 

 sunny position, in any kind of soil, but will repay liberal 

 treatment. For best results spade the beds 2 feet deep, and 

 incorporate in the soil a liberal amount of well-decayed ma- 

 nure of any kind. Water well at all times. The best effect 



is given by 

 planting large 

 masses of one 

 color, setting 

 the plants 18 

 inches apart.
