Alemannia Canna 
Alphonse Bouvier. A luxuriant 
grower, growing considerably taller than 
Mme. Crozy, throwing up flower-stems 
freer than that variety. The tips of the 
shoots are surmounted by immense 
clusters of bright crimson flowers of the 
largest size, and nothing can exceed their 
brilliancy.

the largest flowers. The outer petals are scarlet, 
with a very broad, golden yellow border. Inside 
of bloom is scarlet and dark red. 15 cts.

grower. Flowers are of good size, crimson-scar- 
let, with no shading of any kind. A free bloomer, 
throwing up large trusses of bloom. Foliage is 
very distinct — glaucous green. 
Chas. Henderson. A splendid, compact dwarf 
grower, throwing up erect, compact heads of 
bloom of large size ; the individual flowers are 
among the very largest. Color bright crimson ; 
center of the flower marked with golden pencilings. 
This is one of the very handsomest varieties, and 
makes a pot-plant equal in habit. 15 cts.

deep crimsons; fine individual blooms in large 
trusses, and exceptionally free-flowering and at- 
tractive ; foliage green ; 4 feet.

spotted with red ; of large size and perfect form : 
foliage green ; 4 feet. 
Mme. Crozy. This is a gem of the first water ; 
dwarf compact growth; foliage rich, bright 
green ; flowers the largest and showiest of any in- 
troduced so far, and are produced in large, bunch- 
ing stems, covered with the showiest, dazzling, 
orange-scarlet flowers, bordered golden yellow.

larger than any others and flower-spikes very 
large, each flower standing out separately. The 
flower is as fine as the finest orchid. The color is a
