19 Canna Roots 
for $2.25, ppd. 
We have become so accustomed 
to seeing Cannas in formal beds in 
parks that we feel they have no 
place in smaller plantings. How- 
ever, the stately plants with their 
brilliant clusters of flowers hold 
their own when interplanted with 
shrubs or in bare spots in the per- 
ennial border. Try placing them in 
groups of three and let them high- 
light your garden this summer.
