CAMPANULA. 
The Campanulas embrace a great many beautiful and 
popular Perennials, like the Canterbury Bell, and also a i 
number of annuals of great value for forming masses as 
they are neat in habit, hardy and free bloomers. Seed 
may be sown in the open ground or under glass. Set 
plants five or six inches apart in beds.

CANDYTUFT. 
One of the oldest and most popular and useful little 
flowers is the Candytuft. It blooms long and freely, is 
perfectly hardy, so that most kinds may be sown in the • 
earliest Spring, or even in the autumn. Its neat little clus¬ 
ters of flowers are quite a treasure to the bouquet maker, , 
particularly the white. The prevailing colors are white 
and purple, though some new kinds arc verging on the 
crimson. Our engraving shows the ordinary form of 
the heads of flowers, and also a plant of the Rocket , 
with long and somewhat spiral clusters of flowers. The 1 
other varieties branch more freely from near the ground, 
and in most cases the clusters of flowers are more flat¬ 
tened than shown in the engraving.

CANNA. 
The Gannas are stately plants, with broad green, 
highly ornamental leaves. There are several varieties, 
the leaves of some being entirely green, while in others 
the leaf-stem, mid-rib and veins are red. Some kinds 
grow four to five feet in height, while others are only 
about three feet. In a cold climate, seed must be sown 
under glass, and it is well to grow the plants in pots, 
so as to get them of good size before planting in the 
garden. In autumn take up the roots, keep in sand, 
and plant next spring.

CANNA HOOTS. 
To obtain strong plants the first season it is well to 
purchase roots. The Canna gives such general satis¬ 
faction that we have put the price low to encourage all 
to plant.
