Nephrolepis Scottii. (The Scott Fern.) 



The Scott Fern still holds its place as one of the most important of 

 the Nephrolepis, the public appreciates well grown plants of it, and the 

 ease and quickness with which saleable plants can be produced and 

 this at a saving of time as well as of room compared with all other 

 varieties, has also made it a favorite with the grower. 



2%-inch pots .... 60 cts. per doz.; $4.00 per 100 ; $35.00 per 1000 



Nephrolepis Barrowsii. 



The Improved Pierson Fern. 



In this variety we have a dense compact form of the Pierson Fern, 

 in which the fronds are not only shorter and broader, but it grows 

 bushier, and what is most important, its fronds are supported on stout, 

 stiff midribs, which gives the plant a much shaplier form. 



2^-inch pots ... 60 cts. per dozen; $4.00 per 100 ; $35.00 per 1000. 



Nephrolepis Elegantissima. 

 The Tarrytown Fern. 



When well done this makes a fine specimen, it 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 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 aU purposes. 



60 cts. per dozen ; $4.00 per 100 ; $35.00 per 1000. 



Nephrolepis Whitmani. 



The Improved Tarrytown Fern. 



In this we have unquestionably the most valuable Nephrolepis of 

 the Ostrich Plume type yet introduced, not only is rt of dwarfer and 

 more compact habit than the N. Elegantissima, but the pinnae being 

 more deeply divided, gives the plant a much more graceful appear- 

 ance, while another important point in its favor is the fact that it 

 never reverts to the Boston Fern. 



2^-inch pots $1.25 per dozen ; $S.oo per 100; $75.00 per 1000. 



6 " " $1.00 each.

 ceeding admirably as a house plant. It possesses a graceful and deli- 

 cate appearance that is found in no other plant.
