Scientific gardening has reached an epoch when sub-tropical or Leaf Gardens in any part 0 / the three 
kingdoms are no longer a chimera, ft 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, ike Canna fnust necessarily 
take the prominent position: possessing, as it does, large picitoesque foliage, varied both in form and colour, 
with 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 an amplitude of leaves. 
A stock of Cannas is easily secured by sowing the seed early in spring in a Hrcn^ moist heat, and the plants are 
decorative the first season ; or the seed may be sown later to fonn rhizomes for another year. 
The following varieties are a. selection of those recently introduced, and we are glad of the opportunity to 
ofer some important additions to the Cannas now cultivated in this country.
