FAIRFAX ROSES — THE ARISTOCRATS OF ROSEDOM 
CANNAS 
These wonderful bedding plants give uniformly good results in all sections of the 
country. They succeed in any sunny position, in any kind of soil, but will repay liberal 
treatment. For best results spade the beds 2 feet deep, and incorporate in the soil a 
liberal amount of well-decayed manure of any kind. Water well at all times. The 
best effect is given by planting large masses of one color, setting the plants 1 8 inches 
apart. All of my plants are pot-grown, and are ready to bloom at once. The table on 
page 26 will show the number of plants required for beds of all sizes.
