C1AFNA, Nat. Ord. Marcmta’cece. Highly ornamental half-hardy perennials. 
Scientific gardening has reached an epoch when sub-tropical or Leaf Gardens in any part of the three 
kingdoms are no longer a chimera. It is simply a question of the right place for the plants, the right plants for 
the place, and the treatment necessary to ensure success. In this style of gardening, the Canna must necessarily 
take the prominent position : possessing, as it docs, large picturesque foliage, varied both in form and colour 
wl *! 1 a chasteness yet boldness of outline peculiar to itself and which renders it an equally pleasing associate 
either with shrubs or flowers. Although we have alluded to the foliage only of these plants, it must not be forgotten

that their flowers are very decorative, rising conspicuously, as they do, from amidst the amplitude of leaves. ‘ 
A stock of Cannas is easily secured By sowing the seed early itt spring in a strong moist heat, the plants will be 
decorative the first season ; or the seed may be sown later to form rhizomes for another year. 
The following varieties are a selection of those most recently introduced, and we are glad of thus havin 
opportunity afforded of offering some important additions to the Cannas now cultivated in this country 
We have still intact the varieties offered by us last year, price 6d. per packet
