STRONG CANNA ROOTS. 



A portion of the unrivalled Collection of our " Sardinian Correspondent." 



Fine foliaged plants, and such as are ot stately growth, haA-e of late years been much sought after 

 for the adornment of the flower garden, terraces, pleasure grounds, lawns, select shrubberies, carriage 

 drives, &c. ; besides relieving the monotony too frequently to be met with in such places, plants of 

 this character impart a somewhat Orient^ aspect. 



For such purposes the Canna stan^ unrivalled ; its large picturesque foliage, and spikes of 

 vivid-coloured flowers, produce a truly magnificent effect, especially when planted in groups, whether 

 on the lawn, in the centre of large beds, or in the mixed flower border. The following varieties 

 will be found to form the most striking contrast in habit and foliage. 



That the characteristic beauties of the Canna may be fully developed during the early summer 

 as well as autumn months, plant the roots in pots as early in spring as convenient, placing them in 

 a frame, greenhouse, sitting-room window, or wherever there is warmth. Towards the latter end of 

 May, or beginning of June, plant them out in the warmest situations at command, and water 

 hberally during hot dry weather with weak guano water. The plants delight in deep rich soil, 

 therefore trench the ground to the depth of two or three feet, and manure heavily before planting out.
