SPECIAL NOTICE. 



Our measurements of plants, where 

 given, as in the case of Palms, etc., means 

 the height of the plant from the top of the 

 pot to the top of the plant in its natural 

 position. We make this explanation of our 

 way of measuring, as many growers con- 

 tend that the proper measurement is from 

 the bottom cf the pot to the tip of the 

 longest leaf, and make their oft'ers in that 

 way.
