JAPANESE FER]?»J 

 BAEI.S. 



(Daiallia liullata.) 



A variety from Japan, with deep 

 green fronds S to 10 inches long, from 

 creeping rootstocks or rhizomes. These 

 are made up by the Japanese into fanci- 

 ful shapes, such as balls, wreaths and various other figures, and 

 may be suspended from the roof of the conservatoiy or window 

 garden, where they soon start into growth. The.se roots are 

 fastened to a frame made of spaghnum moss, which retains the 

 moisture, so that an occasional dippipg into a pail of water is all 

 that is required to keep the plants in a good growing condition. 

 As we have foun<l the ball-shaped forms to give the best results, 

 as well as being the most artistic in appearance, we only offer 

 this shape. (See cut.) 50 cts. and 75 cts. each.
