The Boston Fern, This graceful 



-Sephrolepis 

 differs from the ordinary Fern in hav- 

 ing much longer fronds, which fre- 

 quently attain a length of 4 feet. 

 These" fronds arch and droop over 

 very gracefully, on account of which 

 it is frequentl}^ called the "Fountain 

 Fern." 15c. 



Nephrolepis Scotti. The Dwarf Boston Fern. 



This is the latest and probably the best house 

 plant of all the Sword Ferns, identical to the 

 celebrated Boston Fern, except that it is smaller 

 in all its parts, more compact, and makes a nice 

 specimen in a short time. 25c.

 fronds grow broad and 

 heavy, measuring 6 inches 

 across, increasing in beauty 

 as they develop. On ac- '> 

 count of the weight of the • 

 foliage, the plant assumes , 

 an exceedingly graceful ap- 

 pearance. 15c. I
