(ASPARAGUS SPRENGERII.) 



THIS is undoubtedly one of the handsomest and most 

 valuable evergreen trailing plants for the house and 

 conservatory ever introduced. It is especially valu- 

 able for pots, vases, baskets, etc., covering all with its 

 beautiful sprays of lovely green feathery foliage, which 

 can be cut freely and are very useful for bouquets, wreaths, 

 and all kinds of floral decoration. It makes a charming 

 ornamental plant for the window or conservatory in win- 

 ter, and is equally valuable for vases, baskets and porch- 

 boxes in Summer. It is a strong vigorous plant, very 

 easily grown, requires but little care and keeps on grow- 

 ing, fresh and green, year after year. Price, 15, 20 

 and 25 cts. each ; $1.50, $2.00 and $2.50 per 

 doz., postpaid. Extra size, from 5 and 6 inch 

 pots, 40 and 50 cts. each ; $4.00 and $5.00 

 per doz., by express. 



A5FflR/IQU5 PLUn05/l. 



(CLIMBING LACE FERN.) 



A finer and more delicate plant than theSprengerii, but 

 hardy and easily grown ; very satisfactory for window and 

 house culture ; an extremely graceful window climber, 

 bright green feathery foliage, as fine as the finest silk or 

 lace. The fronds retain their freshness for weeks when 

 cut, and are greatly admired for floral decoration. An Emerald Feather Asparagus. 

 exceedingly beautiful plant for house and conservatory, and will thrive nicely in the temperature of an 

 ordinary living-room. Entirely unequalled for the grace and beauty of its lovely, -spray-like fronds. 

 Price, nice thrifty plants, 15 and 20 cts each ; $1.50 and $2.00 per dozen, postpaid; 

 larger size, 35 cts. each ; $3.50 per dozen, by express. .^
