BULBS AND TUBERS. Per 
CJANNAS'-Madame Cro'/y. Best of its type...|$ o 
Austria. One of the new orchid-flowering varieties, growing 
very tall, producing exceedingly large deep golden-yellow 
flowers in strong trusses. In masses it presents a grand sub -1 
tropical effect.j 
Chas. Henderson. A beautiful new variety of last season, raised 
by M. Crozy, of dwarf habit, with deep rich crimson flowers. 
Decidedly an acquisition . 
Crown Jewel. A very distinct and new dwarf Canna. Golden-, 
yellow, thickly dotted over with scarlet markings. Blooms freely 1 
Fairy Queen (Wintzer). A very dwarf new canna growing only 
15 inches high, with small (lowers in the way of Queen Charlotte 
as to color. A good bloomer and very effective. 1 
Golden Star. Of dwarf habit, a profuse bloomer, and produc-j 
ing compact heads of rich golden-yellow flowers. Very effective 
for bedding. 1 
Italia. Another serviceable new orchid-llowering variety forj 
bedding purposes. Color red with broad yellow margins, and 
of very large size. It is one of the most attractive novelties in 
the entire list of Cannas. 1 
Kaiser Wilhelm II. Rich brilliant scarlet, fine form. 1 
Queen Charlotte An elegant novelty with rich crimson petals 
broadly banded with golden-yellow. 1 
The Nezv Canna, Maple Avenue. (H. B. &T.) After a careful; 
test during the past two seasons, this has proved on our grounds; 
to be the most brilliant and striking variety we have used fori 
bedding purposes. A large group planted exclusively with this 
novelty attracted more attention from visitors than any other of 
the popular Cannas. In color it is orange-vermilion, with tints 
of scarlet, and a delicate shade of crimson towards the calyx. 
In other words, it is a brilliant “Turkish-red.” In the full sun the 
tint is gorgeous, and far more effective than any of its competi¬ 
tors It is of medium height, with deep rich green foliage, and 
produces numerous long, compact spikes all through the season. 
In fact, it might be called a continuous bloomer! Well-estab¬ 
lished plants.-.25 cts. each 2 
Sunset. (II. B. & T.) Our novelty for this season which has 
been tested in our trial grounds for the past three years under 
the name of No. 58 with unvarying success. We have no hesi¬ 
tation in recommending it for any situation, but it is remarkably 
charming when used as a border for the taller growing dark 
varieties. It is quite dwarf in habit attaining only a height of 
20 or 24 inches, bearing a great profusion of bloom, not unlike! 
Mntc. Crozy in color, but lighter, and with a decided yellow band.
