A New Hardy Snow- White Shrub HYDRANGEA. 



Hydrangea Arborescens Grandiflora Alba. A variety of the native 

 H. arborescens, recently discovered. The heads of flowers are in 

 shape like H. kortensis; they are snowy white. It is a true shrub, 

 begins to bloom in early summer and continues into the fall, so that 

 it is practically ever-blooming. After H. paniculata grandiflora has 

 lost its color this variety is still fresh, eventually turning to a light 

 green and then brown. It is a graceful shrub and is destined to 

 achieve the widest popularity. It attains a height of 6 feet and 

 the same width, and is literally loaded with its grand panicles of 

 large snowy white flowers, one of the grandest sights imaginable

 mense pyramidal panicles nearly a foot in length. It commences 

 nowering in August and continues in bloom the rest of the season

NEW OSTRICH-PLUME FERN. 



NEPHROLEPIS WHITMANI. 



A new form of the " Ostrich Plume " Fern. The pinnae subdividing making miniature 

 fronds which are superimposed on the main fronds, looking as if two or even three were con- 

 densed in one. They are graceful beyond description, feathery, plumy; nothing describes 

 them better than Ostrich Plumes. This is by far the best of the type yet offered. (See cut.) 

 Price, 3-inch pots, 20c. each, $2.00 per doz.; 4-inch pots, 60c. each; 5-inch pots, $1.00 each;

THE ELEGANT PLUMED FERN. 



NEPHROLEPIS PIERSON1 ELEGANTISSIMA. 



This is a sport from the Pierson Fern, in which the plumy peculiarity of the original form 

 is even more distinctly developed than in the original, the side pinnae being again subdivided 

 and standing at right angles to the direction of the midrib, makes both sides of the frond equally 

 beautiful, while at the same time the plant is of much more compact habit, growing only one 

 half as tall, but with the fronds nearly twice as wide, making it a much more desirable plant 

 for all purposes. Price, 4-inch pots, 50c. each, $5.00 per doz.; 5-inch pots, 75c. each. 



NEPHROLEPIS AMERPOHLII. 



This is another new " sport " and appropriately called the " Lace Fern " on account of 

 its beautiful frond formation. It is plumed, or crested, and so finely that it has a soft, fluffy, 

 lace-like appearance. The most beautiful of the class. Price, plants from 4-inch pots 50c. 

 each, $5.00 per doz.; 5-inch pots, 75c. each, $7.50 per doz.
