J. STECKLER SEED CO., LTD., AT-MANAC AND 



NEPHROLEPSIS PIERSONl.-Pierson 

 Fern. The feathery, plume-like fronds grow 

 broad and heavy, measuring at least six 

 inches across when fully developed, increasing 

 in beauty as they develop. On account of 

 the weight of the foliage, the plant assumes 

 an exceedingly graceful appearance, and 

 owing to the fullness of the fronds, even 

 small plants are well furnished, making much 

 more symmetrical and beaut. ful plants than 

 the Boston Fern. The divided piima, or the 

 miniature frond?, keep growing constantly, 

 showing two distinct shades of green, the 

 ends being a light green, while the center and 

 main part of the fronds show a dark, rich 

 shade, the contrast producing a very beauti- 

 ful effect, greatly enhancing the beauty of 

 the plant. Ferns, 25c., 40c., oOc, 75c., §1.00 

 and $1.50 each.
