THE VICTORY FERN (Nephrolepis victoria) 



We take pleasure in offering this new and valuable variety of 

 Nephrolepis. It is a beautifully crested form of "Teddy, Jr." 

 with fronds frequently subdivided on the ends, making a most 

 unique, distinct, and desirable variety. 

 This fern was 



AWARDED A BRONZE MEDAL 

 at the S. A. F. Convention at Detroit in August, 1919. The 

 judges of the award reported as follows: "Special stress is 

 laid on the new fern Victory, with a rapid growth and a 

 branching at end of fronds, making it a shapely plant. It 

 should be a commercial success, and we RECOMMEND IT 

 MOST HIGHLY."
