Those who have only known the canna of "ye olden time," or "Indian Shot" as it 
is more familiarly called, will scarcely recognize the Maguiflcent Dwarf French 
Cannaa of to-day, with their great spikes of hrilliant flowers and their wealth of 
lUKuriant foliage. No class of plants has in the last few years made such rapid and 
satisfactory progress. 
Cannas delight in rich soil, warm locations, and plenty of water. They should be 
allowed to make good sized clumps, but the soi I must be fertilized from time to time.
