TWO IMPORTANT NEW COMMERCIAL FERNS 



Cyrtomium Rochfordianum 



THE CRESTED. HOLLY FERN 



Tlie Mat I'abtable Dfcoratiz',- Fern of Recent Inti-oductwn 



A most importaut addltlou to our list of Ferns. Its 

 foliage Is of a rich, deep, glossy green color, the plnme 

 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. 



■Ji/i inch pots, 15 cts. per dozen; $6.00 per 100; (40.00 

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

 each, at $3.00 per flat. 



Adiantum Farleyense Gloriosa 



THE GLORY FERN or RUHM VON MORDRECHT 



T/ie Fern Whicli H^il! Re~vliitionize the 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 Rivervlew 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 house 



devoted to the ordinary Boston Fern and received the 



ordinary treatment and temperature given to the 



Nepbrolepis, •■iiid under this tre;itment they developed 



not only fronds of great beauty on longer, stltEer stems 



than Farleyense produces, but 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 Adiantum such as Cuneatum, Croweanura and Hybridum, can 



grow it under precisely the same conditions given to these sorts. 



We have a fine block of about 30,000 young plants coming on which will be ready to send out in September from 214 -Inch 

 pots, and for which we are now booking orders at $;.00 per doz.; $16.00 per 100; $140.00 per 1000.
