_ BOSTON OR SWORD FERN. 
Nephrolepis Bostoniensis. 
With increasing emphasis we again 
assert that the most popular plant for 
house culture to-day is the Boston 
Fern, and well it deserves this recogni- 
tion of its merits. It is very ornamen- 
tal, even when quite small; but as with 
age it attains size and its distinctive 
habit of growth, it makes a magnificent 
specimen, its long, drooping and grace- 
fully arching fronds descending. from 
a plumed mass of foliage which the 
young fronds form at the top frequent- 
ly reaching a Jength of from 4 to 6 feet. 
For outdoor culture in shady places it 
is also excellent. 
Price—Plants in 3-inch pots, each 15c; 
in 31%-inch pots 25¢c; in 4-inch pots 50c; 
in 5-ineh pots 75c; in 6-inch pots $1.00; 
in 7-inech pots $1.50; in 8-inch pots $2.00 
to $3.00; very large specimens, from 
$5.00 to $8.00 each. 
NEPHROLEPIS SCOTTI. 
This  -fern, very appropriately 
styled the Dwarf Boston Fern, is a 
late introduction of ~considerable 
value and beauty. Its’ habit of 
growth is much like that of the Bos- 
ton Fern, its fronds, however, being 
shorter~and “narrower, very grace- 
fully recurving so as to form even 
in the young, undeveloped plant a 
decidedly attractive specimen: We 
believe it will become very popular.
