DREER'S FINE FERNS. 



VARIETIES OF SPECIAL MERIT. 



Adiantum Bensoniana. 



A most beautiful Maiden-hair, with large fronds and deep 

 green pinnse, which, while closely overlapping, is not so dense 

 as to make the frond appear crowded. It makes a handsome 

 specimen plant, and is a distinct addition to our long list 

 of Adiantums. 

 A fine lot of 3-inch pot plants $2.00 per dozen ; ^15.00 per 100.

Adiantum Rhodophyllum. 



A very pretty dwarf growing Maiden-hair with large bronzy 

 green pinnae, this beautiful variety has been very aptly called 

 "the miniature Farleyense," but unlike that variety it is easy to 

 grow and always meets with a ready sale.

Asplenium Nidus Avis. 



The " Bird's Nest Fern," a fine thrifty lot of 3 inch pots, 30 

 cts. each ; $3.00 per dozen ; $20.00 per 100. 



Asplenium Nidus Avis Multilobatum. 



A distinct new variety of the Bird's Nest Fern, with which 

 it is identical in every way, except that the edges of the fronds 

 are deeply lobed or toothed in irregular segments ; a variety 

 that is . worthy of a place in every collection. 4-inch pots, 

 $1.00 each. 



Gymnogramma Chrysophylla 

 Superba. 



While the Gymnogrammas or Gold and Silver Ferns are of 

 little or no value as decorative plants, they always appeal to the 

 amateur and at least a few plants should be kept in stock for show 

 and decorative purposes. 



In the variety here offered the foliage is not only liberally 

 dusted with golden yellow but is also heavily crested on the ends, 

 not unlike the popular Microlepia hirta cristata, which adds 

 materially to its appearance. 



3-inch pots, 15 cts. each ; $150 per dozen.
