DREER'S SELECT CANNAS. 



We aim to supply the "World's Best Varieties" of Cannas, irrespective of source of origin, but it is most gratifying to note the 

 predominant rank which is now held by American-raised varieties. 



The prices here quoted are for strong 2- to 3-eye, fresh-cut divisions, of which delivery can be made at any time before April 1st, 

 after which date only well-established growing plants from 3-inch pots can be furnished. 



The increasing demand for started Cannas has induced us to specialize in these, and we are preparing a large stock of 3-inch 

 pot-plants for delivery after April 1st. 



The average florist, who prepares for the demand for Easter plants, will find this well-established stock, of which we can make 

 delivery immediately after Easter, a profitable investment. The plants will be in proper condition to shift at once into 4- or 5-inch 

 pots, thus making ideal plants for retailing at bedding-out time. 



PRICES. 

 The prices here quoted are for dormant 2= to 3=eye divisions. The price for well=established 

 3=inch pot=plants will be as follows : All varieties priced at $8.00 per 100 or less in dormant roots 

 will be supplied in pot-plants at the uniform rate of $1.25 per doz.; $8.00 per 100 ; $70.00 per 1000 ; 

 but on all varieties listed above $8.00 per 100, the price of both dormant root* and potplants will be 

 the same.
