Fine Ferns. 



Varieties of Special Merit— continued. 

 Aspidium Tsnssimense. 



Without question the most valuable of all Ferns yet introduced 

 for Fern-dishes ; of strong but dwarf and graceful habit ; of good 

 color and of better keeping quality than any other Fern we know. 

 Heretofore we have been able to offer this variety only in hmited 

 quantity, but this season oirr stock consists of nearly 60,000 

 plants, and are therefore able to quote it at a popular price. 



2-inch pots, ^4 00 per 100 ; $35 00 per 1000.

Asplenium Bulbiferum. 



This variety is but rarely seen in this country, but is grown 

 in large quantities in Europe, especially in England, where it 

 is considered one of the most important Ferns for house decora- 

 tion ; it is a most valuable variety to grow into 5 or 6-inch pot 

 plants. We offer good 



4-inch pots, $1.25 per doz. ; $10.00 per 100. 



Cibotinm Princeps. 



Similar to C. Schiedei, but with broader, shorter foliage. 



Cibotinm. Schiedei. 



This is undoubtedly the finest of all Tree Ferns for use in 

 decorative purposes, and, though appearing very soft, is in fact 

 very hardy, as has been demonstrated by the leading decorators 

 in all the Eastern cities, succeeding admirably as a house plant, 

 which is not the case with any other Tree Fern. It possesses 

 a graceful and delicate appearance that is found in no other 

 plant. It is a variety that is always scarce and difficult to 

 obtain. We have succeeded in growing a fine lot of this variety, 

 and offer beautiful decorative plants of it.

Miorolepia Hirta Cristata. 



Wc consider this one of the finest Ferns in cultivation to 

 grow into specimen plants, and while it is of such a delicate, 

 graceful appearance, that would lead one to think that it was 

 useless as a house-fern, it is, nevertheless, one of the best for 

 this purpose, and when well grown, meets with as ready sale 

 as tlie popular Boston Fern. It is seldom that we are in a 

 position to offer it in quantity ; this season our stock is excep- 

 tionally large, which enables us to offer it at the following low 

 prices :

 suitable for 3-inch pots, at $1.00 each ; $10.00 per dozen ; $75.00 

 per 100.
