 IJKEIlLZr\0 Plants for Florists. 



Onr stock of decorative plants, such as Palms, Ferns, Pandanus, Ficus, Araucaria, etc., etc., is now very complete in 

 a fall line of sizes, from small seedlings for growing on, to specimens of the most useful decorative sizes. The plants 

 are all ia a clean, healthy, vigorous condition, thrifty and well-grown. 



Our Measurements of Plants ■'^'lere given, as in the case of Araucarias, Palms, etc., 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 contend that the proper measurement is from the 

 bottom of the pot to the tip of the longest leaf, and make their offers in that way. 



An Invitation. Whenever possible, we solicit a personal inspection of our stock. Our Nurseries at Eiverton, 

 N. J., are within easy reach from either Philadelphia or New York (Time Tables on application), 

 and something of interest will always be seen. We have considerably increased our facilities for the handling of Aquatic 

 Plants, and our Water Lily Garden is now the largest and most complete in the world. This alone is well worth a visit 

 from the most distant points. Aquatics are at their best from early July until late September. The collection not only 

 includes large lots of the most popular sorts, but all the latest introductions and many new sorts of which we possess the 

 entire stock, and which have not yet been disseminated ; the different varieties of Victorias luxuriate here, and from 

 present indications feel safe in saying that one or more sorts will be found in flower any day during the season. 



ACALYPHA SaNDERI. 



Acalypha Sanderi. 



Without a doubt the most sensational new plant intro- 

 duced for many years, and one of the most striking flower- 

 ing ornamental plants we have ever seen. It is of strong 

 free growth with large dark green leaves, from each axil of 

 which, one to two feet long and nearly one inch thick, rope- 

 like spikes of velvety crimson flowers are gracefully sus- 

 pended, as shovm in our illustration, which conveys but a 

 faint idea of the habit and distinct warm coloring of this 

 splendid acquisition. 



The plant is in flower the year round and is as easily 

 grown as a Coleus, simply requiring a warm temperature to 

 develop its full beauty. 2^ inch pots, 15 cts. each ; $1.50 

 per dozen ; $12.00 per 100. 



Aoaoia Armata. 



A pretty spring flowering variety which produces its 

 flowers in globular heads from the axils of the foliage in 

 such a manner as to completely envelop the plant in a 

 pleasing light yellow ; an excellent plant for Easter forc- 

 ing, succeeding under the same culture as the Azaleas. A 

 nice lot of bushy plants in 5 in. pots. 12 to 15 inches high. 

 50 cts. each ; $5.00 per doz. ; $35.00 per 100. Eeady in October. 



AgeratTun Princess Pauline. 



A most distinct and novel variety of dwarf compact 

 habit, rarely exceeding five inches in height, its peculiarity 

 being that both colors, blue and white, are combined in the 

 same flower ; the body of the flower being white, while the 

 stamens are of a light sky blue, giving the flower a pretty, 

 variegated appearance ; one of the most distinct new bed- 

 ding plants, and a most desirable plant for the retail trade. 

 50 cts. per dozen; $4.00 per 100. 



Agapanthus. 



Agapanthus Umbellatns Mooreanns. 



This compact growing variety of the "Blue African 

 Lily," though introduced in 1879, has been but little 

 disseminated, not because its value was not known, but ora 

 account of scarcity. We have now succeeded in working 

 up a large stock, which enables us to offer it at a popular 

 price. It is of dwarfer, more compact habit than the type 

 and much freer flowering, even the smallest plants throw- 

 ing up strong flower spikes, with large umbels of 30 to 50 

 beautiful dark blue flowers. The plant is almost hardy 

 and requires but little protection, and will thrive under 

 almost any conditions. 20 cents each ; $2.00 per dozen ; 

 $15.00 per 100. 



Allamanda Williamsii. 



This handsome variety is entirely distinct from all others, 

 being quite dwarf and in no way resembling a climber, 

 but forming a compact bush with trusses of bloom at every 

 point, and having from two to four expanded blooms on 

 each extremity at the same time and buds innumerable. 

 It continues flowering the whole summer, and, with proper 

 management, in the winter also. The flowers are of a 

 very rich yet delicate tint of yellow, deliciously scented. 

 3 inch pots, 15 cts. each ; $1.50 per dozen. 



Anthurinms. 



Andreanum Hybrids. A fine collection of seedling 

 plants from which we can select the following colors, aU 

 in large sized flowers : brilliant scarlet, salmon, dark red 

 and rose. 75 cts. and $1.00 each. 



Grande. A pretty foliaged variety, vrith rich velvety 

 green leaves, the principal veins being banded with sil- 

 very white. 75 cts. and $1.00 each. 



Scherzerianum. Brilliant scarlet flowers. 50 cts. each. 



Scherzerianum Rothschildianum. Creamy white 

 spotted with crimson. $1.50 each. 



Scherzerianum Sanguineum. Crimson. 75 cts. each.
