tion, for $20.00. 
MEDINILLA. 
The Medinillas here described are among the most gorgeous 
tropical flowering plants in cultivation, and most desirable plants 
for the amateur who has the facilities of a hothouse. They are 
natives of the Philippines, with handsome, broad, shining, leath- 
ery foliage. The plants continue in flower from April to July; 
the flowers are of a coral-red color, five-petalled, each about an 
inch across, and are borne in immense pyramidal panicles fre- 
quently a foot long, and bearing from 100 to 150 flowers. The 
branches of the panicles as well as the large, showy bracts, some- 
times four inches long, are of a delicate pinkish color. A large 
well-flowered specimen is a sight never to be forgotten. 
Magnifica. Bears its flowers in pendulous racemes. 
Amabilis. Identical with the above, except that the racemes 
of flowers are held erect. 
$1.00 each.
