For a profusion of large, dazzling flowers through the hot 
summer months, plant Cannas. Their stately habit, strong fol- 
liage and gaudy colors produce a rather tropical effect. Excel¬ 
lent for flower beds and as a summer screen for unsightly objects 
They produce a good effect singly or in small groups in the 
hardy border, or among shrubs. 
For a circular bed take a stake and string and mark a circle 
18 in. from center or 3 ft. across. Lengthen the string 18 in. 
for each circle. Set 1 plant in the center, 6 in the first circle, 
12 in the second, 1 8 in the third, and so on. It requires about 
37 plants for a bed 9 feet across, and at least a foot all around 
should be allowed for growth of foliage. Plant when you plant 
your garden, in a sunny situation in good, rich, mellow garden 
soil, 18 in. apart. Not hardy; must be stored over winter.
