CAN NA, Nat. Ord. Maranta! cem, Iliglily ornamental half-hardy perennials. 
Scientific gardening has reached an epoch when sub-tropical or Loaf Gardens in any part of the 
three Kingdoms ore no longer a chimera. It is simply a question of the right place for the plants, and 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 : jiossessing, os it doe.-i, j^icluresque foliage, varied both in 
form and colour, with a chastencss yet boldness of outline jHCuliar to itself, ana wnich renders it at once 
pleasing to the most fastidious and an epially agreeable associate with either shrubs or Jlowers. 
. Although we have alluded only to the foliage of these plants, the flowers are by no means to be despised ; 
indeed, some of them are exquisitely beautiful. 
A stock of these is easily secured. Sow the seed early in spr ing, in a strong moist heat, and they will be 
d^orative tl^ first season ; or sow them later, and they will make nice rhizomes for ahother season.
