The Right Cypress for 

 Greenhouse Material. 



Have you heard of Cypress Greenhouse Material that has not been satisfac- 

 tory ? If you have it does not follow that Cypress is not the best lumber to use. 

 There is White Cypress, Yellow Cypress and Red Cypress; there is Cypress that 

 grows on the high lands and Cypress that grows in the swamps. 



All of these different kinds are not suitable for greenhouse purposes. Do you 

 know which kind is best and do you know that kind when you see it ? If not you 

 would better buy from those that do know and will deliver exactly what they sell. 

 We introduced Cypress for greenhouse construction and pushed it to the front. 

 We know all about it. For fifteen years we have made a specialty of furnishing it, 

 and during this time we have built up a reputation that we can not afford to jeop- 

 ardize. We send out the best only.

washing out the roots these suckers 

 may be separated from the parent 

 Ijlant without difficulty, and soon be- 

 come esiablislied plants. 



Tlie carludovicas are said to be na- 

 tives only of tropical South America, 

 where a number of handsome species 

 have been found, one of which, C. pal- 

 mata, possesses additional interest on 

 account of its leaves furnishing the ma- 

 terial for the so-called Panama hats, 

 those luxuries of summer dress that 

 are unfortunately beyond the purse of 

 the average florist. But we may be per- 

 mitted to grow a plant of Carludovica 

 palmata, and by exercising the imagi- 

 nation we may see the patient Soutli 

 American native selecting one large 

 young leaf, carefully removing the 

 stiff veins or ribs from it. then slitting 

 it into narrow strips and finally plating 

 it into a shapely head cover without 

 separating the strips at the stem end. 

 Such ingenuity deserves a proper finan- 

 cial reward, but in all probability the 

 larger portion of the profit is secured 

 by the European or American hatter, 

 •who ultimatelv retails the product.

These square pots economize space, give more

 Simply unlock the bottom tiaps (see cut), allow- 

 ing the roots to grow unchecked. 



To protect roots from worms, pull pot up one 

 inch above surface (see cut).
