 riANETTIA BICOLOR 



Little wonder that this singularly beautiful climbing plant continues to attract so much attention, for it is indeed a handsome 

 object when trained on a trellis, rafter or pillar, whether in the house or conservatory. Its bright scarlet, yellow tipped, little 

 tubular flowers are borne in such profusion as to almost hide 

 the foliage. Usually it grows rapidly in any moderately warm

 being very pretty and effective when grown in hanging baskets.

ORCHIDS. 



Of these peculiar, but most interesting and very beautiful 

 plants we have a large and complete assortment. Want of space 

 precludes an enumeration of them, but we will gladly give a list 

 and description, and quote prices on a collection of them on ap- 

 plication. We would say, however, that as few amateurs at least 

 in this country, are as yet familiar with this class of plants, in- 

 tending purchasers will, we feel assured, find it to their ad- 

 vantage to leave the selection of a collection or even a few of 

 these plants to us. We always exercise the utmost care and dis- 

 cretion in filling all such orders intrusted to our judgment.
