HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA—DECORATIVE PLANTS 13 
Palms for Home Adornment. 
No collection of plants is complete without Palms. Their 
bold, majestic, yet graceful foliage lends a grandeur and mag- 
nificence that cannot be obtained by any other class of plants, 
and no decoration, whether in the conservatory, hall or sitting- 
room, is complete without them.

Palms in cultivation; the foliage is of a bright, glossy green, 
with rich golden-yellow stems.
