Select Large-Flowered Cannas. 



Betsy Ross. Z ft. One of the 

 loveliest and most beautiful of all 

 pink Cannias. Flowers large and 

 open; bright, lively carmine-pink in 

 solid, well filled trusses. Large, 

 green leaves. 



Compte de Bouchard. 4^^ ft. 

 Bright, golden-yellow, thickly dust- 

 ed with small, red dots, so small they 

 cannot be seen when a few feet from 

 the plant. Large, flowers and good 

 trusses. Green foliage. 



Crimson Bedder. 3 ft. Intro- 

 duced by me some ten years ago and 

 now the most popular bedding va- 

 riety. It is well nigh perfect in habit 

 of plant. Compact trusses of large, 

 bright flowing crimson flowers. 

 Early and a very free bloomer. 

 Compact grower, with bright, green 

 foliage. (See cut). 



David Harum.. 4 ft. A strong 

 grower and remarkably free bloom- 

 er. Highly ornamental foliage of 

 dark bronze. Trusses and flowers 



large with well rounded petals of 

 good substance; bright vermillion, 

 dotted with crimson spots. 



Egandale. 4 ft. Popular by rea- 

 son of its highly ornamental foliage 

 of dark chocolate; erect, compact 

 habit and large, finely formed 

 trusses of bright, cherry-red flowers, 

 produced very freely ; one of the best 

 of this class. 



Florence Vaughan. 5 ft. Large 

 trusses of canary-yellow flowers, 

 heavily dotted with deep orange- 

 scarlet; broad, heavy bright green 

 foliage. Free bloomer and very 

 popular. 



Mme. Crozy. 4 ft. All things 

 considered, still one of the best for 

 bedding. A constant, free and re- 

 liable bloomer, with large trusses, 

 set well above the foliage. Flowers 

 large, bright orange-scarlet, lightly 

 bordered with yellow. Bright green, 

 massive foliage. , ^.
