Palms and Decorative Plants- 



KENTIA BELMOREANA. This is some- 

 times called the "Curly Palm," and is 

 recognized as among the best for all pur- 

 poses. Our plants are of stout, stocky 

 growth, and are sure to give satisfaction. 

 (See cut.) Price, plants from 7-inch pots, 

 about 30 inches high, $4.00 each ; 6-inch 

 pots, about 24 inches high, §2.50 each;

 each ; 4-inch pots, 75c. each ; 3-inch pots, 

 35c. each, $3.50 per dozen. 



KENTIA FOSTERIANA. A taller-grow- 

 ing variety than the above, with broader 

 leaves, longer stems, and more sweep to 

 the foliage. It makes a large plant in a 

 shorter period, and on that account, as 

 also for its truly majestic appearance, it 

 is greatly in demand. Price, plants from 

 7-inch pots, about 3 feet high, $3.00 each; 

 6-inch pots, about 30 inches high, $2.00 

 each; 5-inch pots, about 24 inches high,

 about 18 inches high, 60c. each, $6.00 

 per dozen.

 $10.00 each.

 newspecies; slender, graceful habit, unlike 

 anythingelse. A rare gem in Palms. Price, 

 plants about 2 feet high, $3.00 each.

 red, variegated crimson and pink, 40c. 

 each, $4.00 per dozen.

 broad, gracefully drooping leaves. Price, 

 strong plants, 60c. each, $6.00 per dozen.

 pretty, variegated variety, marked green 

 and white. Excellent for centres of jardi- 

 nieres. Price, 50c. each, $4.50 per dozen. 



DRACAENA INDIVISA. ( TheFountain 

 Plant.) This plant is unsurpassed for 

 hardinessin thehouse and eminently fitted 

 to contrast with Palms and other decora- 

 tive plants. Price, 30c. each, §3. 00 per doz. 



CYCAS REVOLUTA. ("SAGO PALM.") 



CYCAS REVOLUTA. For years the "Sago Palm" was so 

 scarce that the price wasvery high and beyond the reach of ordinary 

 plant buyers. We imported a fine lot of them from Japan and offer 

 them very low, so as to be within the reach of all. 



It is probably the most valuable decorative plant grown, both 

 for lawn and house decoration ; the heavy, glossy, deep green fronds 

 resist alike the gas, dust and changes of temperature to which 

 house plants are frequently exposed. (See cut. ) "We offer plants at 

 $2.00, $3.00, $4.00 and $5.00 each, graded according to number 

 of leaves and size. 



COCOS WEDDELLIANA. This beautiful Palm is unquestion- 

 ably the most elegant and graceful in cultivation. The finely cut 

 leaves are recurved with exquisite grace. Price, from 3-inch pots, 

 35c. each; from 2-inch pots, 25c. each, $2.25 per dozen. 



RUBBER PLANTS. We have a splendid stock of this useful 

 and ornamental plant, which will flourish under the most adverse 

 conditions. Price, 12 to 15 inches high, 50c. each, $5.00 per dozen ; 

 15 to 18 inches, 75c. each, $7.50 per dozen. 



THE COLD-DUST DRACAENA. (Dracaena Godseffiana.) 

 Entirely distinct from aU other Dracaenas; of branching, shrubby 

 habit, developing from the base so as to form compact graceful 

 specimens in a short time. The leaves are numerous, 

 broadly lanceolate, about 4 inches long and 2 inches 

 wide; of a strong leathery texture, with highly polished 

 surface as if varnished; rich, dark green 

 in color, liberally sprinkled with irregular 

 specks and spots of rich yellow. On the 

 older leaves the spots gradually change 

 to ivory-white, making a fine contrast. 

 It is very hardy as a house plant, equaling, 

 if not surpassing, in this respect, the 

 Rubber Plant. (See cut.) Strong plants 

 from 4-inch pots, 50c. each; plants from 

 3-inch pots, 35c. each. 



LATANIA BORBONICA. (Fan Palm.)

 dozen; 5-iuch pots, 75c. each, $7.50 per

 most useful of our ornamental foliage plants. 

 As a vase plant or single specimen in green- 

 house orconservatoryit cannot be surpassed.

 3-inch pots, 30c. each, $3.00 per dozen ; 2-inch 

 pots, 20c. each, $2.00 per dozen. 



PHOENIX CANARIENSIS. One of the 



hardiest of the Date Palms, with dark green 

 feathery foliage, of strong growth, and is 

 especially valuable for vases, tubs, and out- 

 door decoration, as it stands sun and wind

HENDERSON'S 



SUPERB PA.NSIES. 



We have sold these for a number of years and have received hundreds 

 of letters praising their superb beauty. When our pansies are in bloom 

 we go over them daily and every plant showing superior merit is removed to our 

 seed plot, where nothing but the largest, handsomest and most perfect are allowed 

 to remain. Consequently the seed is saved from the greatest variety of types, 

 including only the best. Price, young plants, 30c. per doz., $2.00 per 100, $15.00 

 per 1,000.
