CANNAS 
Cannas for Color 
For a flaming, gorgeous color effect, give us Cannas. 
They outshine most other plants, yet they are never 
gaudy. In beds they are extremely effective. 
HOW TO MAKE A ROUND CANNA BED 
Plant 1 Canna in the center, 6 in the first circle, 12 in 
the second circle, then 18, 24, etc., according to the size of 
the bed, with the circles 18 inches apart, and the plants 
in the circle 18 inches apart. A bed 4 feet in diameter 
takes 7 Cannas; a 7-foot bed, 19 Cannas; a 10-foot bed, 37 
Cannas; a 16-foot bed, 91 Cannas. 
The President. 4 ft. Far and away superior to any other 
scarlet Canna ever produced. This beauty, with its 
massive heads of glowing scarlet, is in a class by it- 
sell for brilliant effect and is used by practically every 
park superintendent who needs a vivid red in his 
plantings. 
King Humbert. 4 ft. Flower orange-scarlet, streaked crim¬ 
son. Foliage ebony. Its unusually handsome foliage, 
which is equaled by no other variety, makes this Canna 
as popular as is the President for its gorgeous flowers. 
King Midas. 4 ft. Very large, beautifully formed, firm 
flowers of glittering golden yellow. 
Victory. 3 ft. The throat of the flower is glowing apricot 
which shades to a suffusion of pinkish-buff or summer 
sunset tints over the petals, finally edging off to a 
distinct border of maize-yellow. Flowers are medium 
in size.
