Cannas 
Large Flowering Sorts 
For grouping on lawns, and for large, massive beds, no plants are more 
effective. They are not particular as to soil, although they do best in 
a sunny, well-drained situation. Plant the roots any time after danger 
from frost is past. The improved large-flowering sorts bloom from 
early summer until fall. 
GOLDEN EAGLE. It excels all other dwarf yellow varieties. The flowers 
are very large and stand well above the foliage. 3 feet. 25c each; $2.50 
per dozen. 
KING HUMBERT. The most popular of all Cannas. Great orange-scar- 
let flowers surmount beautiful, vigorous, deep bronze foliage. 4 feet. 
20 c each; $2.00 per dozen. 
MRS. ALFRED CONARD. Often called “Queen of Cannas.” Its large, 
exquisite salmon-pink flowers are produced well above the foliage.

individual florets often measure seven inches across when open. The

YELLOW KING HUMBERT. Very effective yellow with red dots; large 
orchid type flowers. 4 feet. 20c each; $2.00 per dozen.

plants that get mixed in with other varieties and so on, put all to¬ 
gether in a mixture. They are all first-class named varieties, but we 
cannot promise you any particular color or variety. 6 for 50c; 90c per 
dozen; $8.00 per 100, postpaid. 
Caladium Esculentum - Elephant’s Ear 
One of the most effective plants in cultivation for beds, borders or for 
planting out upon the lawn. Very frequently used as border plants 
about suburban residences, where their large, rich green leaves af¬ 
ford an excellent embellishment when contrasted with the colors of 
the dwellings. Leaves often measure 3 to 4 feet long, and 2% feet 
wide. Bulbs do best if planted outdoors in this latitude, about June 1.
