TWO IMPORTANT NEW COMMERCIAL 
: FERNS 
Cyrtomium Rochfordianum 
(The Crested Holly Fern) 
The most valuable Decorative Fern of recent introduction 
A most important addition to our list of Ferns. Its 
foliage is of a rich, deep, glossy green color, the pinne or 
leaflets besides being wavy or undulated are also deeply 
cut or toothed, giving the plant a graceful light appearance, 
which make it valuable not only as a dish Fern but decora- 
tive work and for apartment use. 
2'4-inch pots 75c per dozen, $5.00 per 100, $40.00 
per 1000; 4-inch pots $2.00 per dozen, $15.00 per 100. 
Also a limited lot of flats of about 200 plants each, at $3.00 
per flat. 
Adiantum Farleyense Gloriosa 
(The Glory Fern or Ruhm Von Mordrecht) 
The Fern which will revolutionize the cut frond business 
For the grower of Ferns for cutting this new Maiden Hair will undoubtedly prove a most important 
addition; it closely resembles Adiantum Farleyense and will make a splendid substitute for that fancy 
variety, and it can be produced at much less cost, as it will thrive under conditions in which Adiantum 
Farleyense could not exist. 
At our Riverview Nursery we have given it a very fair trial for this purpose during the past winter. 
A block of these plants were planted on a bench in a house devoted to the ordinary Boston Fern and 
received the ordinary treatment and temperature given to the Nephrolepis, and under this treatment 
they developed not only fronds of great beauty on longer, stiffer stems than Farleyense produces, 
but also many more fronds than would be developed by that variety in the same length of time 
under the most favorabie condition. 
Anyone who successfully grows the ordinary varieties of Adiantum, such as Cuneatum, Croweanum, 
and Hybridum, can grow it under precisely the same conditions given to these sorts. 
We have a fine block of about 30,000 young plants coming on, which will be ready to send out in 
September from 2'4-inch pots, and for which we are now booking orders at $2.00 per dozen, $15.00 per 
100, $140.00 per 1000.
