Cannas 89 
A Bed of Isbell’s Large-Flowering Cannas Will Look Well on Your Lawn. 
Ismene Daffodil 
Brilliant Cannas 
Ismene Calathina - Peruvian Daffodil 
A grand summer flowering bulb, producing with great 
freedom, large, amaryllis-like, pure white, very fragrant 
blossoms. Keep the bulbs in a dry, warm place, and plant 
out in June. Bulbs can be taken up in October, and, after 
a few weeks’ rest, potted for flowering in the house in the 
winter, or kept over for planting out another season. 25e 
each; 3 for 65c; doz., $2.35, prepaid. 
No plant can take the place of the Canna. For a hand¬ 
some and showy display, they are unrivaled. This is so on a 
large lawn where an extensive planting is desired, and also 
on a small plot where there is room for only two or three 
plants. The rich foliage is a pleasant sight all summer, 
while the brilliant flowers add .just the necessary touch of 
gorgeous colors. Set the roots 18 to 24 inches apart eaeli 
way. The richer the soil the larger the plants and flowers 
will be. 
Cinnamon Vine 
The Cinnamon Vine is one of the most beautiful climbers 
and will grow 30 feet in a single season. Gan be easily 
trained over and about a window or porch. Produces 
clusters of delicate white flowers of the most delicious 
fragrance. Beautiful glossy, heart-shaped foliage. Per¬ 
fectly hardy, thriving anywhere, growing in the shade, Jn 
the sun and where it is wet or dry. Die down each winter 
but grow up again very early in the season. Strong, large 
roots, 15c each; 3 for 40c; doz., $1.25, prepaid. 
Giant Amaryllis 
One of the most beautiful, surest to flower and most 
easily handled of all bulbs. A single stem will produce from 
one to three lily-like flowers, six inches in diameter. Plant 
one bulb in a 6-inch pot, water sparingly until the flower 
shoots appear.
