NEPHROLEPIS SCHOLZELI 
FINE FERNS—Varieties of Special Merit 
Nephrolepis Scholzeli. 
(The Crested Scottii. ) 
This variety has met with great favor and has made a permanent 
place foritself. It isthe ideal crested Fern, holding the same position 
to all other crested varieties that Scottii holds to the old Boston. It is 
a sport from Scottii, possessing all the merits of that most popular vari- 
ety, but withthe pinne sub-divided, giving it a neat crested appear- 
ance. The fronds, like in Scottii, stand erect, with a graceful arch 
forming a plant of ideal shape, and they never break down, giving the 
plant a ragged appearance as is so often the case with all other crested 
forms; furthermore, the loose, elegant arrangement of the fronds, allow- 
ing a free circulation of air, prevents the centre of even the largest 
specimen from becoming defective or yellow, which is one of the 
weak points of all of its predecessors.

Nephrolepis Superbissima. 
(Introduction of 1908.) 
Entirely distinct from all other crested forms, the fronds being 
heavily imbricated with the pinnze overlapping, making them very 
dense and compact. In color it is of a rich, dark green, of sturdy 
habit; the fronds being firm and rigid, never break down. 2%-inch 
pots, $2.00 per dozen ; $12.00 per 100. 4 inch pots, $3.50 per dozen; 
$25 00 per 100.

compact plant of ideal shape; a valuable addition to this class. 
Strong plants from 2%-inch pots, $2.00 per dozen; $15.00 per 100. 
Nephrolepis Giatrasii. 
This variety introduced last fall in a very limited way, has proven to 
be a gem, especially where a perfect specimen is required in a small 
size. It will develop beautifully in a three, four or five-inch pot, 
making an ideal plant for many purposes where the other varieties of 
Nephrolepis are too coarse ; grown in a 24-inch pot it will prove valu- 
able for Fern-dish work. While it isa direct sport from the Boston 
Fern, to call it a miniature form of Scottii will convey a better idea of 
its appearance. 21-inch pots, $2.00 per doz.; $12.00 per 100; $100.00 
per 1000. 5 inch pots, 50 cents each. 
Nephrolepis Exaltata Superba. 
Another magnificent crested or plumed variety of the Boston Fern, 
probably the most beautiful of all. Its pinnules which overlap each 
other are densely frilled, divided and sub- divided into plumose crests. 
The plant attains a height of over three feet, but todo it well it must 
be kept continuously in a growing condition. Good plants $1.50each.

Polypodium Glaucum Cristatum. 
This splendid Polypodium is a perfect gem and entirely distinct 
from all other Ferns and an excellent subject to grow into specimen 
plants, like Polypodium Glaucum the fronds which attain a height of 
about two feet are of a metallic glaucous blue color, but with the edges 
of the pinnz wavy and ciispate, giving the whole planta unique 
and graceful appearance. (See cut on page 32.) 75 cts. each. 
Pteris Childsi. 
This beautiful variety is to Pteris what Farleyense is to Adiantums, 
and like that variety produces no spore, so that propagation is by the 
rather slow method of division, which will keep it a rare variety. The 
plant is of strong growth, attaining a height of about 20inches; fronds 
large, pinnee deeply dentated and undulated, tips crested. Makes a* 
beautiful specimen for exhibition. We offer a limited lot in 4-inch 
pots, 75 cents each.
