Plant Departn^ent. — Our stock of decorative plants, such as Palms, Ferns, Pandanus, Ficus, Araucaria, etc., etc., is now very complete in a full line of sizes, from small seedlings for 

 growing on, to specimens of the most useful decorative sizes. The plants are all in a clean, healthy, vigorous condition, thrifty and well-grown, and will compare favorably with stock 

 distributed by us in previous seasons. 



\Vhenever possible, we solicit a personal inspection of our stock. Our nurseries at Riverton, N. J., are within easy reach from either Philadelphia or New Vork, and something of 

 interest will always be seen. 



The new ranges of glass erected in 1895 and 1896, covering 53,000 square feet each, (two of the houses being nearly one acre each under one roof ) are certain to interest anyone 

 having anything to do with a greenhouse. This, we beUeve, illustrates in a practical way, that we believe in home-grown plants. 



Our Palm cultures are now undoubtedly the largest and most complete in the country. 



A time card of trains, with directions how to reach the nurseries, will be mailed to anyone applying.
