 the style of A. NYiegandi, but with larger pinn;e on longer stems.

 to us. 2 inch pots, $1.25 per doz.; Sio.oo per loo. 

 3 " " 2.00 " 15.00 " 



Adiantum Rhodophyllum. 



This variety is always scarce, and while it does not compare 

 with Tarloyense in a large specimen, in a small plant it resembles 

 it very much, and has the advantage of succeeding under ordi- 

 nary cultivation.

Cibotium Schiedei. 



This is undoubtedly the linest of M the Tree Ferns for use in 

 decorative purjjoses, and though appearing very soft, is in fact 

 very hardy, as has been demonstrated by the leading decorators 

 in all the Eastern cities, succeeding admirably as a house plant, 

 which is not the case with any other Tree Pern. It possesses a 

 grace and delicate appearance that is found in no other plant, 

 the illu.stration giving but a faint idea of its beauty. It is a 

 variety that is always scarce and difficult to obtain. We have 

 succeeded in growing a line lot of this variety, and offer beautiful 

 decorative plants of it. 7 inch pots, S2.50 each ; 8 inch pots, 

 ^3.50 each ; 9 inch pot', S4.00 each ; 10 inch pots, $5 00 each. 



Microiepia Hirta Cristata. 



We consider this one of the finest Ferns in cultivation to grow 

 into specimen plants, and while it is of such a delicate, giaceful 

 appearance, that would lead one to think that it was useless as a 

 house-fern, it is, nevertheless, one of the best for this purpose, and 

 when well grown meets with as ready sale as the popular Boston 

 I'crn. It is seldom that we are in a position to offer it in 

 (|uantity ; this season our stock is exceptionally large, which 

 enables us to offer it at the following low prices : 



2 '4 inch pots, 75 cents per doz ; j 6.00 per loo.

Nephrolepis Cordata Compacts. 



In our estimation this variety is the finest of all the sword 

 ferns ; it is of free, strong growing, compact habit, atlaiiing w hen 

 fully grown, a height of about 2 feet. The fronds, which are of 

 a dark green color, are very rich, of upright growth, with just 

 sufficient arch in them to make them gracefiil. 



2j^ inch pots, Si. 25 per doz.; S S.OO per lOO.

Nephrolepis Exaltata Bostoniensis.
