ROSE OF JERICHO, 
20c. each, 
It is entirely different from our Mexican Resurrection Plant, as it is hard wooded and grows in the form of a 
little bush. When dry, the branches fold up into a mass or ball, but 
when placed in water they soon unfold, and in 10 or 20 days green leaves 
will start out and growth commence. Without seeing it, one could 
hardly believe these dry, dead branches could send out green leaves and 
shoots. All that is necessary to produce growth is to keep the plant 
standing in a glass of water about half-way to the top of its branches. 
It is a native of the border of the Dead Sea, where it grows and blooms 
freely. 20c. each; 3 for 50c., post-paid.

across and have a bunch of fine yellow 
stamens in the centre. The plants attain 
a height in California of 6 to 8 feet. North 
of Washington it should be taken up and
