SELECT LIST OF SEASONABLE 



Garden and House Plants 



ABELIA 



Chinensis Grandiflora. 



A choice, small, hardy Shrub of graceful habit, 

 producing through the entire summer and fall months white tinted lilac 

 heather-like flowers in such abundance as to completely cover the plant. 

 50 cts. each. 



AGAPANTHUS 



Umbellatus (Blue Lily of the Nile). A splendid ornamental plant, bearing 

 clusters of bright, blue flowers on 3-foot long flower-stalks and lasting a 

 long time in bloom. A most desirable plant for outdoor decoration, planted 

 in large pots or tubs on the lawn or piazza. 



— Albus. A white flowering variety. 



- — Mooreanus. A smaller form than the type with dark-blue flowers ; pro- 

 duced very freely. 



50 cts. each ; $5.00 per doz. 



ALOYSIA (Lemon Verbena) 



Citriodora. Well known, popular, fragrant favorite. 25 cts. 

 each ; $2.50 per doz. 



ASPARAGUS 



Plumosus Nanus (Asparagus Fern). If there is a better plant 

 for table decoration than this we do not know it. The foliage is 

 more delicate than that of the finest Fern, being lace-like in its 

 filminess. A plant with half a dozen stalks is a mass of dainty, 

 misty green, among which the stems of a few flowers can 

 be thrust in such a manner as to make a pretty decoration for 

 the table. 25 cts. and 50 cts. each ; $2.50 and $5.00 per doz. 



Sprengeri (Emerald Feather). Excellent for hanging-baskets, for 

 bracket use and for cutting. It is one of the best of all plants for 

 the window-box when planted on the outside, where it can droop over 

 the edge of the box. 50 cts. each ; $5.00 per doz. 



Abelia Chinensis Grandiflora 



Croton 



CESTRUM PARQUI (Night-blooming jessamine) 



An interesting tender shrub of easy cultivation, with small green- 

 ish white flowers of delightful fragrance, which is dispensed dur- 

 ing the night only. 25 cts. each ; $2.50 per doz. 



CROTONS 



Nothing can excel the beauty and richness of coloring that is 

 found in this class of plants. They are beautiful as pot plants for 

 the conservatory, making handsome specimens for decorative and 

 exhibition purposes.

CYPERUS (Umbrella Plant) 



Alternifolius. An excellent plant for the house. Will thrive in 

 any good soil, and always presents a green and attractive 

 appearance. It may be grown as a sub-aquatic, and in any case 

 should never lack a liberal supply of water. 25 cts. each ; $2.50 

 per doz. 



FARFUGIUM 



Grande (Leopard Plant). This is an extremely ornamental plant. 

 Its large, circular leaves, thickly spotted with creamy-white and 

 yellow, make it wonderfully effective for room decoration. It 

 likes a soil of loam and mucky matter, half and half, with a good 

 deal of water. Ample provision, however, should be made for 

 drainage. Once a month apply a fertilizer, as it is a gross feeder 

 when allowed to have its way. Keep it in the shade. 50 cts. each ; 

 $5.00 per doz.
