West American Ferns. 



The ferns ot Southern California are especially noted for their 

 beauty and grace. We collect the roots of these in the summer, 

 when nearly all are perfectly dry, and they are then sent by mail 

 or express in that condition. They require careful treatment, but 

 are well worth the care. Prices are per loo roots, carefully 

 packed. It is impossible for us to secure all the following species 

 every year; those marked with an asterisk (*), however, are 

 especially recommended and can generally be supplied with 

 promptness. Collection often, our choice, for $i.oo, postpaid.
