DREER'S SELECT CANNAS 



Dreer's Select Cannas are the best and most popu- 

 lar varieties in commerce. The roots here offered 

 are all grown by ourselves at our Riverton Nurseries. 

 They will be freshly divided for orders at time of 

 delivery, and therefore their vitality will not have 

 been impaired by shrinkage in storage after division. 



All varieties have green foliage unless otherwise

Pot Plants of Cannas 



One of Our Specialties 



We are again this season preparing a large stock 

 of Cannas established in 3-inch pots for delivery 

 April 1st and throughout the spring months. We 

 have specialized in these for a number of years 

 and the annually increasing demand convinces us 

 that these plants are appreciated by the trade. 



The florist who prepares for the demand for Easter 

 plants will find this well-established stock, of which 

 we can make delivery either before or 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 sale at 

 bedding-out time. 



Prices for well established 3-inch pot plants of 

 Cannas, ready April first, are $1.00 per doz.; $8.00 per 

 100; $75.00 per 1000 for all varieties offered above as 

 roots at $8.00 per 100 or less. On varieties offered 

 above at $10.00 per 100 or over, the price of pot 

 plants will be the same as that quoted for roots,
