Canna Seed. 



Par excellence. Large flowering French and 

 Giant Orchid Flowered ^ named kinds only, un= 

 excelled for quality by any seed in the world. 



Saved especially for me from the largest and 

 finest collection of magnificent named varieties 

 on this continent. Unquestionably one of the 

 finest of bedding plants for the American 

 climate, and equally good as a pot plant for 

 summer and winter. All through Europe, 

 where the climate is not suitable, it is grown 

 in this way ; also largely in all botanical gar- 

 dens. 

 Packet, 15 plump, sound seeds, lOc; o/., 25c. 



HOW TO PLANT. 

 Canna Seed should be cut (at one of the 

 points) about 1-16 of an inch and then soaked 

 in warm water twenty-four hours. If treated 

 in this way and sown in the house blooming 

 plants may be had as early as roots. 



WILB CUCUMBEH. 



Echinocystis Lobata. 



This is the quickest growing climber in our 

 list. Grows wild, self-sown, in many parts of 

 the West. It will grow 30 feet in one season. 

 It is thickly dotted over with pretty, white, 

 fragrant flowers, followed by an abundance of 

 ornamental and prickly seed pods. For a trellis 

 or pillar no annual vine is more chaste, and it 

 will cover an old tree, or an unsightly building. 

 Packet. 5c. 5 Yz oz., 15c.
