CHRYSANTHEMUMS, JAPANESE. -General Collection. 



The hybrids from this novel sectioa are exceedingly interesting in their varied 

 forms and markings, together with the enormous size of the flowers of many of the 

 varieties, many of them being five inches in diameter, and one of them reaching the 

 extraordinary size of eight inches in diameter. They also, in most of the varieties, 

 possess the valuable property of flowering during the Winter months, when desired, 

 by pinching off the buds as soon as formed in October. They are all as hardy as the 

 ordinary Chinese sorts. New and high-priced varieties of last year are included in this

CINERARIA ACANTHIFOLIA. -Importation of 1870. 



A most beautiful foliage plant, of a silvery white hue, a little in the style of C. 

 Maritima, but with wider aud longer leaves, and hence more effective, either as a speci- 

 men plant, or when grown in ribbon-lines. Habit of plant, dwarf and stiff. 



Price, 50 cents each ; $4.50 per dozen. 



CINERARIA MARITIMA. 



A white-foliaged plant, somewhat similar to the Centaurea, but with leaves deeply 

 cut, and of more vigorous growtk. It is much easier of propagation, and we are there- 

 fore enabled to sell it at much lower rates. 



Price, 30 cents each,; $3 per dozen. 



CISSUS DISCOLOR. 



A woll-kuown Stove Climber, with leaves beautifully shaded with dark green, purple 

 and white, the upper surface of the leaf having a rich, velvet-like appearance. The 

 leaves are much used in New York for trimming the margin of bouquets and baskets of 

 flowers. The plant requires the highest hot-house temperature in Winter, to develop 

 the beautiful coloring of the leaves; under proper conditions it may be trained to a 

 height or length of fifty feet. 



Price, 30 cents each ; $3 per dozen.
