Two Sensational 
Pink Cannas 
These two magnificent pink varieties will be 
supplied as growing plants only owing to the fact 
that the roots are difficult to store. They can be 
shipped any time after February but we strongly 
advise that you order early and request shipment 
to be made to you at the proper planting time 
which as you know is after danger of freezing 
is past. 
Jersey Rose 
An unusually attractive variety bearing truly 
immense flower trusses composed of large glossy 
deep rose-colored blooms. It is an exceedingly 
free bloomer reaching a height of from 3% to 4 
feet which makes this plant ideal for bedding. 
The growth is compact and the bright green 
foliage presents a splendid background to the 
vividly colored blooms. : 
Mrs. Pierre S. duPont 
Wherever this superb variety is displayed it 
invariably is an object of the greatest admiration.

tall, bearing above the luxuriant rich green foliage 
magnificent trusses composed of large well-formed 
blooms presenting a delicately toned watermelon- 
pink color. We never have succeeded in producing
