Per plant. 



*Sedeni. "A very beautiful hybrid, between A. Metallica and A. Lowii. 

 The form of the leaf is perfectly intermediate between the two 

 parents, whilst the coloring is a very striking and pleasing combina- 

 tion of the metallic hue of one parent, with the dark green and 

 prominent white veins of the other. A fine foliage plant 1 00 



*Lowii. A very beautiful plant with large shining foliage. Forms a fine 



specimen 2 00 



■^Yeitchii. The foliage of this plant is exceedingly distinct. A grand 



show plant. - 1 00 



Zebrina. Fine yellow leaf-stalk, with distinct black marks, rendering it 



a very conspicuous plant. It makes a grand specimen 1 00 



■'^Metallica. A plant possessed of great beauty. Large thick shell-like 

 leaves of a bronzy-copper color. It is distinct and admirable in every 

 respect 50 cts. to 1 00 



Illustris. (Gibsonii.) The leaf-stalks are erect, and have a brownish- 

 purple tint, color a rich green, marked between the principal veins 

 by broad patches of blackish olive, and forming a striking contrast 

 with the brighter green portions of the leaf surface 50 



Jenningsii. A delicate green, over which, between the principal veins, are 

 laid heavy blotches of black, which are remarkably precise in outline and 

 arrangement. 30 cents each. 



DOKYANTHES PALMEKI.— Queen's Land Lily. 



An ornamental flowered plant, in style intermediate between the Yucca and 

 DrcEcoena, forming a stemless bulbiform rootstock. The flower scape rises from 

 the centre, 8 feet in length, forming densely clothed pyramidal compound race- 

 mes, much like those seen in various Yucca species. Flowers numerous, ap- 

 proaching in size and form to those of the well known Vallota purpurea^ from 

 three to four inches in diameter, of a rich poeony-crimson hue, with a white 

 centre. Each blossom is accompanied with leaf bracts of an equally rich color 

 as the flower. $1.00 each. 



TABEKN^MONTANA CAMASSA. 



(Growers of Flowers for Market should cultivate a house of this plant alone.) 



A very desirable shrub of a neat compact dwarf habit, with medium small 

 glossy bright green laurel-like leaves and terminal axillary cymose racemes of 

 double white flowers of Gardenia like outline and fragrance, which are pro- 

 duced on the point of every shoot. The usual temperature of a hot-house with 

 less humidity, will produce blooms more freely and longer in succession. The 

 petals of the flowers are lighter and more elegantly arranged than the Gardenia, 

 and not quite so large ; soiall plants in 3-inch pots will produce flowers freely. 

 50 cents each. 



GEEYA SUTHERLANDI.

 gonium; flowers very showy. A really flne and distinct plant. $1 each.

A small plant, with bright green leaves dotted all over with white spots — a 

 gem. 60 cents each. 



*APHELANDRA FASCHSTATOR. 



A very fine species, with very ornamental foliage as well as magnificent 

 flowers ; the leaves are rich dark green, beautifully banded with silvery white, 

 and underneath of an uniform purplish-violet ; the spikes of bloom are very 

 large and of dazzling vermilion color. 60 cents each.
