]Slew Ever-Blooming Cannas. 
$6 oo 
The French, or Ever-blooming Cannas, are now the most popular bedding plants we have. The flowers are of immense size, 
brilliant showy and gorgeous. Their wonderful freedom of bloom, large flower heads and beautiful foliage cannot be excelled by any 
other bedding plant for a grand display. 
These Cannas are also very desirable for house culture. After 
the plants have done duty in the garden all summer, the roots may 
be divided, potted, and started into growth. They will soon make 
elegant blooming plants, and will sell readily with any florist having 
retail trade. 
The varieties we offer are among the best and most popular of 
recent introduction.
