pots, 10 to 12 inches high, $3.00 each; 6-inch pots, 15 inches high,

Plumosus Nanus (Asparagus Fern). If there is a better plant 
for table decoration than this we do not know it. The foliage 
is more delicate than that of the finest Fern, being lace-like

dainty misty green, among which the stems of a few flowers 
can be thrust in such a manner as to make a pretty decoration 
for the table. 3-inch and 4-inch pots, 25 cts. and 50 cts. each; 
$2.50 and $5.00 per doz.

for bracket use and for cutting. It is one of the best of all 
plants for the window-box when planted on the outside, where 
it can droop over the edge of the box. 3-inch pots, 25 cts. 
each; $2.50 per doz.; 4-inch pots, 50 cts. each; $5.00 per doz.

useful house plant, thriving in a hallway or a comparatively 
dark place in the room where nothing else will succeed.
