XS] GARDEN + GREENHOUSE PLANTS" [|] 
O collection of piunts is complete without Palms. Their bold, majes- 
N tic yet graceful foliage iends a grandeur and magnificence that can- 
not be obtained by any other class of plants, and no decoration, 
whether in the conservatory, hall or sitting room, is complete without them, 
Nearly all the varieties offered are of the easiest culture, succeeding under 
the most ordinary conditions. Our facilities for producing this ciass of 
stock are the most complete in the country, 35 of our largest houses—over 
three acres of greenhouse structure—being devoted to them alone, enabling 
us to supply all the leading and popular sorts at the most reasonable prices. 
(The heights given are from top of pot to top of plant.) « 
COCcOS FLEXUOSUS. 
A tall, slender-growing plant with finely divided pinnz, especially valu- 
able for such sections of the country as Louisiana and California, where it 
may be grown planted out in the open air. We offer a limited number of 
9-inch pots, 8 feet high, with 8 to 4 leaves, at $10.00 each. 
Cocos WEDDELIANA. 
The most elegant and graceful of all the smaller Palms. Its slender- 
erect stem is freely furnished with its gracefully arching leaves, ofa rich 
green color. Admirable for fern dishes, as they are of slow growth and 
maintain their beauty for a long time. 8-inch pots, 12 inches high, 25 cts. 
each; 4-inch pots, 15 inches high, 75 cts. each. Specimen plants, $2.00 
and $38.00 each. 
KENTIAS. 
The Kentias, both Belmoreana and Forsteriana, are the hardiest in culti- 
vation, and give better satisfaction as a house piant than any other varieties. 
They are of slow growth, and are not affected by the dust and dry atmos- 
phere of the house, and were we to select one Palm only, it certainly would 
Bactris Major. be a Kentia. The two varieties are of similar appearance, the former being 
dwarfer and more spreading, and the latter is of stronger growth, with 
broader, heavier foliage. 
ARECA LUTESCENS. 
One of the most graceful and beautiful Palms in cultivation ; KENTIA BELMOREANA. 
the foliage is of a bright glossy green, with rich golden-yellow

Palm, valuable for the warm conservatory. 4-inch pots, 12 
inches high, 50 cts. each. 
BACTRIS MAJOR. 
Not a new, but a comparatively rare Palm, which, where the tem- 
perature of a warm conservatory can be given, is an interesting subject, 
on account of the many long spines with which not only the stems, but 
also both surfaces of the leaves, are densely covered. 
We offer a limited stock of thrifty young plants from 12 to 15 inches 
high, $1.50 each, 
CALAMUS PALEMBANICUS.

feathered dark green foliage. Stems clothed with long, dark spines.

$2.50 each. 
CARYOTA URENS (Ffish-Tail Palm). 
An interesting species with the ends of the leaves formed somewhat 
like the dorsal fin ofa fish. 3-inch pots, 8 inches high, 25 cts. each; 
4-inch pots, 15 inches high, 50 cts. each. 
CHAM ZAEROPS HUMILIS. 
A dwarf growing species with palmate or fan-shaped foliage. Very 
hardy and useful for outdoor decoration. 2 feet high, $3.00 each. 
COcOS BONETTI. 
A rare variety, which for outdoor decoration is the best Palm now in 
cultivation, being hardier than the Phcenix, which it somewhat re- 
sembles, but is more graceful and of a glaucous color.
