CISSUS DISCOLOR (Trailing Begonia).- 

 doubt the most beautiful-leaved climbing _ 

 how known. The leaves are long, heart-Shaped and 

 handsomely marbled and mottled as a Begonia 

 Rex; the under side is transparent wine red. For 

 trailing over the side of a window box, or for hanging 

 basket, or grown on a trellis in pots, it is one of the 

 most useful and beautiful plants. Likes heat and a 

 little manure water now and then. Strong plants, 15 

 cts. each; 4for50cts.; 9 for SI. , \ 



SANSEVIERA ZEALANlCA.-Too much can- 

 not be said in favor of this as a decorative pot plant. 

 There are few that will stand neglect so well ; it laughs 

 at ill treatment: thrives without water; gas or dust 

 does not affect it. Has long, leathery, sword-like 

 leaves, elegantly marked with bars of silvery gray. 

 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 cts. ; 9 for SI. 



THE MANETTIA VINE.— In order to get the 

 most successful results from this lovely vine allow the 

 roots to become pot-bound. This causes the plant to 

 oom profusely when quite small. There is not 

 nother vine prettier for window or pot culture, and 

 when grown to perfection is exceedingly beautiful. 

 Beyond the one point given above, it thrives for all 

 with small care : the lovely wreathes and garlands of 

 r brilliant scarlet and orange-colored flowers, inter- 

 ) spersed with bright, oblong foliage present a striking 

 3 contrast. 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 cts. 

 i GARDENIA FLORIDA, CAPE JESSA- 

 J MINE.— Well-known and popular; blooms pure 

 | white, large, very fragrant. Splendid for pot culture. 

 ^ 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 cts. 



5 GIANT WHITE SCENTED SNAP- 

 DRAGON.— A choice plant for pot culture. A per-

 whitf, with lemon-tinged throat, and of lovely fra- 

 grance. 15 cts. each , 4 for 50 cts. ; 9 for SI. 



SOLANUJI RANTONETTI.-The true blue 

 Solanum. It forms a neat little bush 2 feet high, cov- 

 ered with bloom during the entire Summer and

 blue, with yellow center, presenting a striking con- 

 trast. As easily grown as a Geranium, in pots or 

 den. 20 cts. each ; 3 for 50 cts. ; 7 for Si. 



NEW ABUTILON, SOUVENIR DE BONN.-

 purposes; makes a large bush and produces a great 

 number of lovely flowers. Foliage handsome— green 

 leaves edged with a pure-white band. 15 cts. each; 

 I 4 for 50 cts. ; 9 for Si. 



NEW ABUTILON SAVITZII.-Entirely differ- 

 I ent from Souvenir de Bonn ; the contrast between the 

 I green and white is sharper, and the habit of the plant 

 I dwarfer. As valuable as Palms, Crotons or Dracaenas.
