Asparagus Plumosus Nanus 



^^^^^ _^r,.: THE BEAUTIFUL LACE FERN 



The rare and delicate b:auty of this plant can scarcely be shown by a picture 

 or conveyed by a description. It has bright green foliage, which is gracefully 

 arched, giving it a style and an air that can not be surpassed. Thedelicacy of texture 

 and richness of color are among t:,e marked characteristics. No more beautiful 

 decorative plant has ever been produced. The fronds are 12 to 15 inches in length, 

 and taper to a point from a width of 12 inches. It will last for weeks after being 

 cut, and for many uses has taken the place of Smiiax. As a house plant it is deser- 

 vedly popular because of the fact that it does well under almost all conditions. 

 l5o. each, postpaid; larger plants, 25c., SOc, 75c., $1.00, by express at buyer's expense. 



Ornamentai Asparagus 



(ASPARAGUS SPRENGERI) 



This is one of the most charming of dec- 

 orative plants. It grows free the whole year 

 round, withstands a dry atmosphere, which 

 makes it a most excellent house plant, and is 

 a vigorous grower, producing sprays 4 or 5 

 feet long of fresh green, feathery foliage. 

 When introduced, at a high price, a little 

 over a year a(jo, this variety was received 

 with some hesitation as to its desirability, 

 but after only a limited trial it tias come for- 

 ward with such prominence that the supply 

 will be inadequate to the demand for some 

 time to come. Not only is it useful for cutting 

 in sprays for flnecutflower work— more partic- 

 ularly in connection with large Roses, etc. — 

 but grown in suspended pots it makes one of 

 the pretliest decorative house plants we know 

 of. Used in decorations — as, for example, in 

 the decorations of mantles — nothing can 

 e>iual it. 



Strang plants, 10c. to 15c. each, postpaid.
