VARIETIES OF SPECIAL MERIT 



NEPHROLEPIS SCHOLZELI AND SILVER MEDAL AWARDED BY THE SOCIETY OF AMERICAN FLORISTS, AND BRONZE MEDAL 

 AWARDED AT INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION, BERLIN, GERMANY 



Nephrolepis Scholzeli (Crested Scott Fern). 



This variety was offered by us for the first time last year, and has 

 met with full favor and has made a permanent place for itself. It 

 is the ideal crested Fern, holding the same position to all other 

 crested varieties that Scottii holds to the old Boston. It is a sport 

 from Scottii, possessing all the merits of that most popular variety, 

 but with the pinnae sub-divided, giving it a neat crested appearance. 

 The fronds, like in Scottii, stand erect, with a graceful arch forming 

 a plant of ideal shape, and they never break down, giving the plant a 

 ragged appearance as is so often the case with all other crested forms ; 

 furthermore, the loose, elegant arrangement of the fronds, allowing a 

 free circulation of air, prevents the centre of even the largest speci- 

 men from becoming defective or yellow, which is one of the weak 

 points of all of its predecessors.
