A Wonderful New Nephrolepis 



Nephrolepis Superbissima 



Introduction of 1908 



We deeire to call attention io this new fern, which originated with us and which we are introducing this year. 



It is a very unique and distinct novelty — as distinct from Nephrolepis Piersoni and Piersoni elegantissima as they 

 were from Bostoniensis. It is, in fact, a complete break. The fronds are very heavily imbricated, the pinnae over- 

 lapping, making the fronds very dense and compact. 



It differs from the other Nephrolepis not only in form, but also in color, being a richer and darker green- 

 entirely different from the yellowish green of all the other Nephrolepis. The plant is very stu/dy in its habit, the 

 fronds never breaking down. 



While a photograph shows a similarity to its predecessors, it is absolutely distinct, not only in the formation of 

 the fronds and color, but also in its habit and general characteristics. It makes a much more dwarf and compact 

 growth, the fronds being very dense, firm and rigid, and having a great deal more substance, so that it will stand 

 more knocking around than any other fern of this type. 



It is a sterling novelty. Experts who have seen it consider it by far the best fern ever sent out. It is a plant 

 that needs to be seen to have its great value and sterling qualities appreciated. It really is not in the same class 

 with the other varieties. 



It was awarded a rirSl-Cld-SS wCr LlTlC&t6 by the Royal Horticultural Society at Crystal Palace in 

 London, November, 1908, the plants exhibited there havinsr been shipped from New Tork two weeks before that time. After 

 being exhibited in London, the same plants were shipped to Edinburgh, Scotland, where they were agAin awarded a First-class 

 Certificate by the Scottish Horticultural Society. This will indicate the value of the plant as a novelty, and also demonstrates 

 in a very conclusive manner its fine keeping and shipping qualities. 



We have just begun shipping advance orders, and new orders can now be shipped immediately on receipt.
