ACALYPHA SANDERI 



THIS cut is a representation of the 

 plant as it realh- appears, and is not 

 at all overdrawn. It is one of the most 

 striking ornamental flowering plants that 

 we have ever seen. The flowers are of 

 the brightest crimson color, and grow 

 from 6 inches to 3 feet long, as to the size 

 of the plant. It likes heat and moisture, 

 and good rich soil, but grows easily and 

 blooms so quickly that man}^ are begin- 

 ning to flower when sent out. When 

 warm weather comes, set out in the flow- 

 er bed, and it will grow the whole season. 

 A most sur|Drising novelty and a great 

 curiosity. Said to be Dewey's favorite 

 plant. 2>^ inch, 60 cts. per dozen ; fe-So
