Caunas 
For Summer Beds 
Cannas, in brilliant shades with majestic fo- 
liage, are invaluable for a lovely show in your 
garden or a special bed in the center of the 
lawn. The various shades of green or bronze 
foliage always provide an exotic effect. Start 
the roots early as Cannas thrive best in mid- 
summer heat. Cannas bloom freely until late 
fall. Water freely during dry spells. Store dur- 
ing winter as with Dahlias.

IRIS 
SHILKA 
(VESPER IRIS) 
If Planted in Spring 
Will Bloom This Summer 
The graceful filigree of the 
branches of these Vesper Iris is 
studded with from 100 to 200 
iewel-like flowers, truly a mam- 
moth bouquet. The delicately 
colored blossoms, which at a dis- 
tance resemble a multitude of 
gorgeous butterflies at rest with 
motionless outstreched wings, 
vary in color, including such hues as translucent lav- 
ender with markings of mahogany, lemon, copper and 
orange-brown. The Shilka Iris, which are exceedingly 
easy to grow, bloom for a month during July and 
August when flowers are scarce. Vesper Iris resist 
both severe cold and intense heat with impunity. Be 
the first in your locality to grow this unique Iris.
