apanese leaved /\buti Ion, ^avitzii. 



The remarkable New Japanese Abutilon Savitzii is finely shown in our illustration herewith, 

 which shows the plant growing in a pot. It is a really beautiful plant, most distinct and striking in its whole 

 make-up; the leaves are beautifully formed, very finely and deeply toothed, almost fringed; deep, dark green 

 in the centre, each with a wide border of pure white, and the contrast of colors is so sharp and clear, they 

 look almost as if painted. The style and habit of the plant with its bright and well defined colors, make it 

 very desirable for house and conservatory culture, with palms and other choice decorative plants, where it 

 shows to great advantage, and heightens the effect of all. Price, 20 CtS. each, postpaid.
