DrEvuTzIA LEMOINEI. 
Deutzia Lemoinei. 
Without doubt one of the most important new hardy 
plants offered in many years. It is a hybrid between D. 
gracilis and D. parviflora, and has the advantage over the 
former of having flowers nearly three times as large, which 
are produced in broad based cone-shaped heads of from 20 
to 30 flowers each, and are of purest white, which open out | 
very full. Itis perfectly hardy, and will not only prove a 
valuable plant for the garden, but is certain to become one 
of the standard plants for forcing into flower in winter, 
more especially at Easter, and it is quite sure to take the 
place of the popular D. gracilis. This plant has received

surface of the plant being covered with a silvery sheen of 
bloom. It is altogether different from anything hereto-

doz. 
Dracena Godseffiana. 
Undoubtedly the most striking new plant intro- 
duced this year. As shown in the illustration, the 
plant is of an entirely different habit and appearance 
from all other Dracenas ; it is of free-branching 
habit, and throws out many suckers from the base 
so as to form beautiful, compact, graceful specimens 
in a very short time. Its foliage is broadly lanceo- 
late, 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, of 
which the markings in the foliage strikingly remind 
one. The illustration gives but a faint idea of its 
striking beauty ; it is a plant which will undoubt- 
edly be grown very extensively for decorative purposes 
when it becomes more plentiful, as it is very hardy 
as a house plant, equaling if not surpassing in this 
respect the Aspidistra and Ficus. Strong plants 33- 
inch pots, ready in April, $3.00 each, $30.00 per doz.
