Flowers always pop- ular for button-hole bouquets, rivaling the tuberose in that re- spect. 25 cents each, $ per dozen. CAMELLIA Japonica. Camellias do well in Florida after once be- coming established. They prefer a rather moist soil,but not wet; also, a clayey subsoil ; but we have very good success growing them only in sand. The Ca- mellias of Tallahas- see and North Florida are immense, which Calycanthus ftoridus. ?fhoâ¢s their adaptabil- J J lty to our state. Fine plants in many varieties. 50 cents and $1 each, according to variety. CANNA. These splendid, broad-leaved plants are used in semi-tropical gardening with rich effect. In South Florida the roots can be left in the ground the year through, and if the tops are frosted down in winter, in spring the new shoots will soon be out as large as ever. C. flaccida. Native of the Florida swamps, but deserves cultivation universally as a bedding plant. Of dwarf habit, but producing quanti- ties of large, iris-like flowers three inches in diameter, of a rich golden-yellow. When once fairly introduced, we predict for this plant a great popularity, as it will prove invaluable as a foreground in groups and beds of tall-grow- ing Cannas, caladiums, etc.; is grown with the greatest ease, and content with any soil. 10 cents each, 80 cent's per dozen.
