PHORMIUM.—New Zealand Flax. 



Per plant. 



*Atropurpureum. A very desirable species ; habit the same as P. ienax ; leaves 

 reddish purple. This makes a distinct decorative plant for the conservatory, and 

 a fine subject for the sub-tropical garden. A distinct and beautiful plant 



*Colensoi Variegatum. This beautiful plant has fine broad erect pointed dark green 

 leaves, elegantly banded at the margin with one or sometimes with two conspicuous 

 stripes of creamy white. It has the same mode of growth as P. ienax, but is alto- 



I getner distinct, while its more erect habit gives it quite a distinct appearance, $1 to 2 00 



*Cooki Variegatum. An elegant, somewhat dwarf growing plant ; leaves green, 

 beautifully striped with golden yellow. Native of New Zealand. Price on appli- 

 cation. 



*Veitchii Variegatum. This is a finely variegated form of the well known New Zea- 

 land Flax. The leaves are of the same size as the species, with conspicuous broad 

 stripes of creamy white running out their whole length, and contrasting well with 

 the light shining green ground color. It is a truly noble plant $1.00 to 2 00 



YUCCA. 



Alcefolia Variegata. "We received a special premium for a fine specimen of this plant 

 from the Maryland Horticultural Society. Leaves green, broadly striped and 

 banded with yellow ; a beautiful variegated plant 75 cts. to 1 50 



*Quadricolor. The foliage of this is long, recurved and beautifully variegated. A 



very fine plant 1 50 



DIPLADENIA, (Echites.) 



Amcena. Flowers of a soft pink color, suffused with rose, somewhat resembling D. 

 Splendens, but in every respect a great improvement on that variety, being of 

 superior form, the lobes being stiff and round, instead of reflex and pointed. For 

 summer blooming in the greenhouse, no climber is more lovely than this 50 



*Boliviensis. A very free flowering white Dipladenia. It is very compact, producing 

 an abundance of flowers in a much smaller state than almost any other species. 

 The foliage is medium in size, and of a light glossy green color. The flowers pure 

 white, with a distinct yellow centre 1 00 



♦Hybrida. A very floriferous variety ; flowers resembling D. insignis, both in color 



and form, but are produced in much greater profusion 1 00 



JASMIN UM. 



Duchess d'Orleans. Flowers double, white like miniature white roses, deliciously fra- 

 grant, a very valuable plant 30 



Grand Duke. Flowers double, white like miniature white roses, deliciously fragrant, 



similar to the above, but distinct 30 



Grand Duchesse de Tuscany. Flowers double, white like miniature roses, deliciously 



fragrant, in the style of the two preceding ; very fine 40 



Trifoliata. Another fine variety, flowers white like miniature roses, deliciously fra- 

 grant 40 



Hirsutum, (single.) A very free flowering winter blooming species 50 



No plants can be more beautiful or fragrant than those blooming freely through the 



summer. All who grow choice plants should possess them. 



IXOBAS. 



*Kegina. An extremely attractive and distinct variety, freely producing large dense 

 trusses very full of pips, which are of a rich violet salmon color. It is of a dwarf 

 compact habit, and the flowers are of a deep shade of color ; the trusses are of a 

 somewhat similar shape to those of I. coccinea, but the plant is much more compact 

 in growth than that variety. It is a most superb and effective plant 1 00
