PETER HENDERSON'S NEW WHOLESALE TRADE LIST. 11 
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 over 
18 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. 
, NEW HELIOTROPES. 
Heliotrope, “Purple and Gold.” An entirely new style. 
Foliage golden yellow; flowers large purple, making a beau- 
tiful contrast with the leaves, hence the name “‘ Purple and 
Gold;” in fragrance and profusion of flowers it is in both 
respects equal to the best old sorts. 
20 cts. each; $2 00 per dozen. 
Heliotrope, “Swanley Giant.”—In this we have an entirely 
new color, the first shade of red yet obtained in the Helio- 
trope, the color being what might be termed a carmine rose. 
The size of the truss is immense, often measuring 10 inches 
in diameter, and of the most exquisite fragrance. 
20 cts. each, $2 00 per doz.; a plant each of the 2 sorts for 30 cts. 
DASYLIRION MOLINA. 
A scarce ornamental plant, resembling, somewhat in habit, the 
Pandanus. The leaves are very long and narrow, and are coy- 
ered with small spines. 
Price, 50 cts, each; $4 50 per doz. 
NEW FEVERFEW, “LITTLE GEM.”

EULALIA ZEBRINA. 
EULALIA JAPONICA 
ZEBRINA. 
Unlike all other variegated plants, this has 
its striping or marking across the leaf, instead 
of longitudinally. It grows from 5 to 7 ft. in 
height, forming a most striking and graceful 
plant, resembling nothing else that we know 
of in cultivation. The expanded flower spike 
resembles the ostrich plume, and when dried 
will last for years. Plant entirely hardy. 
Whether used as a single plant or for groups 
\ on lawns it has no equal. (See cut.) 
1st size, $3 00 per doz.; 2d size, $2 00 per doz. 
ERYNGIUM PANDANAFOLIA. 
A beautiful, ornamental leaved plant resem- 
bling some of the Dracenas or Screw Pines, but 
as it is of quick growth and easy propagation, 
it is sold much cheaper. It produces beautiful 
blue and purple flowers during the summer and 
fall months. It makes an excellent room plant, 
and is also well suited for centers of vases, 
baskets, ete. It can also be easily grown to 
an excellent plant for exhibition purposes. 
5 inch, $6 00 per doz. 
NEW DWARF FEVERFEW, 
“Little Gem.’’ 
The great value of the old Dwarf Feverfew 
for cut flowers during the summer and fall is 
well known to florists and others. The variety 
which we now offer for the first time, surpasses 
it in every way. It is very dwarf, attaining a 
height only of from 8 to 12 inches. The flow- 
ers are larger, of more perfect form and of the 
purest white. We had a number of fine plants 
in our greenhouses last fall, grown in pots, 
which were covered with flowers, while the 
plants were only eight inches high from the 
top of the pots. (See cut.) 
$3 00 per dozen.
