Two Superb Cannas 



Supplied in Plants Only 

 Ready February 



Mary Thilow. A very fine Canna, 

 always greatly admired for its beau- 

 tiful large and showy flower trusses. 

 It is a vigorous variety that gives a 

 splendid display on account of the 

 beautiful color contrast of the rich 

 bronzy red foliage and the delicate 

 rosy salmon color of the blooms. 

 We recommend it as one of the 

 finest. $1.25 per doz.; $10.00 per 100. 



Mrs. Pierre S. duPont. A glorious and 

 delightful shade of deep "Watermelon 

 pink — a great favorite on account of 

 its beauty and pleasing softness. 

 The large flowers are produced in 

 elegant massive trusses held well 

 above the foliage. The mellowness 

 of the color will appeal to many 

 gardeners who find that it blends 

 well with almost any other color. 

 $2.00 per doz.; $15.00 per 100; 

 $140.00 per 1000.
