STENOTAPHRON. 
This plant is supposed to be a native of Japan, and has 
proved to be one of the most desirable plants for baskets, 
vases and urns, and for a bracket in window decoration 
it has no equal, its elegant grass-like foliage, striped 
with white and creamy-yellow, with long pendant shoots 
of from one to two feet in length, are remarkably distinct. 
The cultivation is of the very easiest, succeeding ad- 
mirably in any common soil. The plant has also proved 
a great acquisition in the now popular carpet and pat- 
tern bedding designs. $1 00 per doz. 
a DASYLIRION MOLINA. 
A scarce ornamental plant, resembling, somewhat in 
habit, the Pandanus. The leaves are very long and nar- 
row, and are covered with small spines. 
Price, 50 cts, each; $4 50 per doz. 
NEW DWARF STEVIA. 
(Stevia Serrata Nana.) 
A very distinct variety of the well-known Stevia Serrata, 
which was offered for the first time last spring. It never 
grows over18 inches high and its flowers are whiter and 
produced in far denser masses than the old variety, and 
it can be grown on low side benches. 
$1 50 per dozen. 
SELLAGINELLA KRAUSIANA AUREA. 
This is probably the most beautiful of all the Mosses. 
Color, clear golden yellow, similar to that of “Golden 
Feather.” For, Wardian cases or for a pot plant it has 
no equal among its class. 
$2 00 per dozen.
