Mrs. Alfred Conard. One of the very best Cannas in commerce today. 
Large, exquisitely shaded salmon-pink flowers are produced in great 
abundance on robust, upright stalks. We consider this as superior to 
all pink flowered Cannas. 4 feet. 
King Humbert. This remarkable Gold Medal Canna has been the sen¬ 
sation of the past ten years and is the greatest favorite today. Hand¬ 
some, broad, tropical foliage. Scarlet flowers; bronze leaves. 4 feet. 
Yellow King Humbert. 4 feet. An orchid-flowering sport of the well- 
known King Humbert. Flower a deep, rich yellow, softly spotted and 
blotched with bright red. Some plants occasionally give a scarlet or 
scarlet striped flower, which we consider an improvement rather than 
a detriment. Green foliage. 
The President. 4 feet. This immense new flaming scarlet has come into 
wider use more quickly than any other Canna. The President leads 
the red varieties in the quality and also the quantity of its bloom. The 
foliage is rich green and burn-proof in the hottest weather.
