The NeTv Boston or Sword Fern. 



(Nephrolepis Piersoni.) 



The most important addition to our list of Ferns for many years, and a plant which will supercede that most popular of all 

 decorative plants, the Boston Fern, from which it is supposed to be a sport. The plant possesses the same vigorous growth that 

 is characteristic of the Boston Fern, with long graceful fronds, but with each pinnae or leaflet subdividing, so as to form a per- 

 fect miniature frond. This characteristic of the frond is well shown in our illustration, though it conveys but a slight idea of the 

 grace and beauty of the feathery plume-like fronds, which can only be compared to the graceful ostrich plume. The fronds grow 

 broad and heavy, and measure, when fully developed, at least 6 inches across, increasing in beauty as they develop. On account 

 of the weight of the foliage the plant assumes an exceedingly graceful appearance, and, owing to the fullness of the fronds, even 

 small plants are well furnished, making much more symmetrical and beautiful plants than the Boston Fern. 



The plant has been awarded Gold Medals by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, Society of American Florists and 

 Ornamental Horticulturists, Great Kansas City Chrysanthemum Show and a Silver Medal at the New York Chrysanthemum Show.
