TWO IMPORTANT NEW COMMERCIAL FERNS 



Cyrtomium Rochfordianum 



THE CRESTED. HOLLY FERN 



The Most I'a/iujS/e Decorative Fern of Reeetit Introduction 



A most important addition to our list of Ferns. Its 

 foliage is of a rich, deep, glossy green color, the pinnce 

 or leaflets besides being wavy or undulated are also 

 deeply cut or toothed, giving the plant a graceful light 

 appearance, which make it valuable not only as a dish 

 Fern but decorative work and for apartment use. 



-"/4 iiiili pols, 73 cts. per dozen; .^S.OO per 100; $40.00 

 per 1000. Also a limited lot of flats of about 200 plants 

 each, at $3.00 per flat. 



Adiantum Farleyense Gloriosa 



THE GLORY FERN or:RUHM VON MORDRECHT 



The Fern IV/iieh IVill Revolutionize t>!e Cut Frond Busineis. 



For the grower of Ferns for cutting this new Maiden 

 Hair will undoubtedly prove a most important addition; 

 it closely resembles Adiantum Farleyense and will make 

 a splendid substitute for that fancy variety and It can 

 be produced at much less cost, as It will thrive under 

 conditions in which Adiantum Farleyense could not exist. 

 At our Rlverview Nursery we have given It a very 

 fair trial for this purpose during the past winter. A 

 block of these plants were planted on a bench in a bouse 

 devoted to the ordinary Boston Fern and received the 

 ordinary treatment and temperature given to the 

 Xepbriilepis, and under this treatment they developed 

 not only fronds of great beauty on longer, stlffcr stems 

 than Farleyense produces, hut also many more fronds 

 than would be developed by that variety in the same 

 length, of time under the most favorable condition. 

 Anyone who successfully grows the ordinary varieties of .Viliantum such as Cuneatuni, Croweanum and Hybrldum, can 



grow it under precisely the same conditions glv«n to th«!^ sorts. 



We have a fine block of about 30,000 yoiiag plants coming on which will be ready to send out in September from 2%-lnch 



poitts, and for which we are now booking orders at $2.00 per doi.; $16.00 per 100; $140.00 per 1000.
