 entirely of varieties suitable for florists' use^ 



Our collection is made up 



Choice Varieties of Special Merit. 



New Adiantnm Cliarlottse. 



Our illustration gives a faint idea of the beauty and grace of 

 this new Maidenhair ; it is entirely distinct from all other varie- 

 ties, and even more graceful than A. gracillii)nim, and possess- 

 ing the advantage of having much stouter, stiffer stems, on ac- 

 count of which it forms more shapely plants, and increases its 

 value for cutting purposes.

CIBOTIUM SCHIEDEI. 



Adiantnm Rhodophyllnm. 



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

 with Farleyense in a large specimen, in a small plant it resem- 

 bles it very much, and has the advantage of succeeding under 

 ordinary cultivation. 



2-inch pots, 75 cents per dozen ; $5. 00 per 100. 



Asplenium Nidns Avis. 



The " Bird's Nest Fern." A fine, thrifty lot of strong 3 mch 

 pot plants, 25 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen. 



Cibotinm Scbiedei. 



This is undoubtedly the finest of all Tree Ferns in use for dec- 

 orative purposes, and, though appearing very soft, is in fact very 

 hardy, as has been demonstrated by the leading decorators 

 throughout the country, succeeding admirably as a house plant, 

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

 graceful and delicate appearance that is found in no other plant. 

 It is a variety that is always scarce and difficult to obtain. We 

 have succeeded in growing a fine lot of this variety, and offer 

 beautiful decorative plants of it.

Microlepia 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, graceful 

 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 vrith as ready sale as the popular 

 Boston Fern.
