VAUGHAN'S BOOK FOR FLORISTS— CHICAGO AND NEW YORK. 



V AUG HAN'S 



BEST BEDDING CANNAS 



OUR EXPERIES CE WITH CASSAS For over 20 years we have made 



the culture of Cannas one of our 



main specialties. We grew last year on our place at Western 

 Springs over 10 acTe.<i of standard sorts and novelties, besides 

 1.000 seedlings. We ought to know something about Cannas. 

 We know that a great many so-called novelties are being sent 

 out every ye'ar whose only claim for existence in many instances 

 is a new name only. We also know, and had to pay dearly for 

 the knowledge, that ignorant and unscrupulous growers give 

 most any name to their stock of Cannas. as long as the color is 

 somewhere near correct. To them any red is a Chicago, any 

 3'enow a Florence Vaughan, etc. Our Canna.s are true to name, 

 and furthermore, the stock we use for propagation has been 

 specially selected on points of vigor, true type, color, evenness 

 of height and size of tlowers.

FLORENCE VAUGHAN-Tnied-Up Stock 



We found that at least 75 per cent, of the Florence Vaughan sent out by other 

 growers is not true— any yellow, with red spots, is considered good enough by 

 many. Our stock is all true.
