CISSUS DISCOLOR. 



A well-known stove climber, with leaves beautifully shaded with dark green, purple, and 

 white, the upper surface of the leaf having a rich, velvety-like appearance. The leaves are much 

 used in New York for trimming the margins 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; $3.00 per dozen. 



CISSUS AMAZONICA. 



Similar habit to the above; the under sides of the leaves are bright crimson, the upper side 

 bluish green ; a very ornamental variety. 



Price, 30 cents each; $3.00 per dozen. 



COLEUS, "The Shah," or fiS Lady Burrill. 



This, as shown by the engraving above, is peculiarly marked, the base or lower half of the 

 leaf, is rich violet crimson ; the upper half, golden yellow. Small plants do not always assume 

 this variegation, but when grown, then show their singular markings. 



Price, 25 cents each; $2.25 per dozen.
