Asparagus Sprengeri— The charming new decorative plant. When 

 Introduced, at a high price, a little over a year ago, this variety was 

 received with some hesitation as to its desirability, but after only a limited 

 trial it has come forward with such prominence that the supply will be 

 inadequate to the demand for some time to come. Not only is it useful for 

 outting in sprays for fine cut-flower work, more particularly in connection 

 with large roses, etc., but grown in suspended pots it makes one of the 

 prettiest decorative house plants we know of. Used in decorations, as. for 

 example, in the decorations of mantles, nothing can equal it, lOc. and 

 15c. each. 



SPECIAL PRICES ON 



The "Boston" Fern— (Nephrolepis Bostoniensis) — One of the 

 most useful and ornamental of the "Sword Ferns." It is now grown by 

 the thousand for the market in all large cities and is steadily increasing in 

 popularity. Ia well grown specimens the fronds rttain a length of 6 or 

 7 feet, like plumes, arching over in every direction, in a most graceful 

 manner. This beautiful Fern is excellent for outside planting in shady 

 borders. It is a very fine plant for hanging pote or baskets on the piazza in 

 summer and conservatory or window in winter.
