DRAC.F.NA ERUANTI. 



Dracaenas. 



Qodseffiana. One of the most striking ornamental foliage 

 plants of recent introduction. The plant is of an entirely dif- 

 ferent habit and appearance from all other Dracaenas ; of free- 

 branching habit, and throws out many suckers from the base 

 so as to form beautiful, compact, graceful specimens in a short 

 time. Its foliage is broadly lanceolate, 5 to 6 inches -long, and 

 2 to 3 inches wide ; of a strong, leathery texture ; rich dark- 

 green color, densely marked with irregular dots and spots of a 

 creamy white, not unlike an Aucuba Japonica ; will undoubt- 

 edly be grown extensively for decorative purposes when it be- 

 comes more plentiful, as it is very hardy as a house plant, 

 equaling, if not surpassing, in this respect the Aspidistra and 

 Ficus.

 foliage of which is deep green, broadly edged with creamy 

 white; a beautiful and rare plant. 5-inch pots, $2.50 each. 



Indivisa Leutig. A bronzy-leaved form of D. Indivisa 

 which by many is considered even superior to the variegated 

 variety ; strong, 5-inch pots, §2.00 each.

 entirely of varieties suitable for florists' use. 



Choice Varieties of Special Merit. 



J- 



New Adiantum Chariot! se. 



Our illustration gives a faint idea of the beauty and grace of 

 this new Maidenhair ; it is entirely distinct from all other varie- 

 ties, and even more graceful than A. gracillimum, and possess- 

 ing the advantage of having much stouter, stiffer stems, on ac- 

 count of which it forms more shapely plants, and increases its 

 value for cutting purposes. Specimens of this handsome sort 

 shown at the exhibitions of the Penna. Hort. Society 7 during the 

 past two seasons attracted the attention of all lovers of Ferns.

Adiantum Rhodophyllum, 



This variety is always scarce, and while it does not compare 

 with Farleyense in a large specimen, in a small plant it resem- 

 bles it very much, and has the advantage of succeeding under 

 ordinary cultivation.

 ends of which young plants are produced.
