One of the best of last season's introduction; a fine clear crimson, with scarlet shading. Blooms in large, even trusses, carried well above the foliage, and the flower spikes are produced evenly on the plant, making a shapely, compact pjant. The plant is dwarf in habit, grow- ing but 2y2 to 3 feet even in rich soil; foliage rich green with chocolate margin. This is one of the earliest flowering Cannas, valuable either for bed- ding or pot culture. 25c. each; 3 for Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Storrs & Harrison Co; Henry G.
