The Weekly Florists^ Review*

The progressive, keen and discerning 

 florist will this year buy of this 

 standard introduction that is freely 



Conceded to be the best of all Adlantums. 



A GREAT ACQUISITION. 



The best of all'ferne for cut fronds. Brimrs the highest prices. 

 The easiest to grrow and the easiest to sell. Has received the high- 

 est encomiums from the leading cut flower dealers In the country. 



ADIANTUM CROWGANUM originated at Utlca, N.Y.. about 

 fourteen years ago, and has been extensively grown by the original 

 owner, Mr. Crowe, who has received phenomenal prices for the cut 

 fronds In the New York and other markets, and has created a great 

 demand for It. Buy now. Buy liberally and reap the benefits. 



The fronds are long:, elegantly proportioned and of a texture 

 that renders It the best keeper and shipper of all Adlantums. It Is 

 a very free and continuous grower, requires no rest and responds 

 readily to fertilizers. Anyone can grow it and get good money for It. 



INTRODUCER'S DESCRIPTION. Free grower, the dark- 

 est green of the Adlantum family and longest stemmed. It has alSQ 

 the most graceful foliage; the average length of the fronds meas- 

 uring 30 Inches. It Is by far the best keeper. Cut fronds can be kept 

 fresh several weeks in a cool place. It is also one of the best ferns 

 for a dwelling house. I have given presents of this fern to several 

 Utlca friends, and from my own observation note It grows better 

 than the Boston fern. I gave up rose cultivation some ten months 

 ago In order to devote all my attention to fern cultivation for cut 

 fronds. I find from the same amount of bench room this fern pays 

 me II 50 to every 11.00 obUlned from roses. PETER CROWE. 



KEBPINO AND SHIPPING QUALITIES. 



Witb reference to a quantity of fronds sent to Liverpool, 

 Eng., the recipient writes from that port, June 17. 1904, as fol- 

 lows : " The ferns were as fresh as when they were first cut 

 and I believe you can safely send them to Europe, provided 

 they are as carefully packed as these were. They are simply 

 perfect." ISlirned] Thomas B. Proctoe.
