Tarrytown Fern. 
NEPHROLEPSIS SCOTTI (Dwarf, Com- 
pact Boston Fern).—This is a sport from 
the well-known Boston Fern, and is a 
novelty that will commend itself to the 
trade. It is quite distinct from the Boston 
Fern, the fronds being shorter and nar- 
rower, and they are much more freely pro- 
duced, making a very compact, finished 
Plant; | particularly. in. the. -small «sizes.

NEPHROLEFSIS ELEGANTISSIMA 
COMPACTA. (New).—This dwarf, com- 
pact form of Elegantissima, introduced by 
us in 1909, bears the same relation to that 
variety that Scotti does to MBostoniensis. 
The fronds are considerably shorter than 
those of Elegantissima, and it throws a 
great many more crowns, making it a 
very bushy, compact, symmetrical plant. 
It has an ideal habit, and occupies a 
place by itself, being as distinct from Ele- 
gantissima as that variety is from _ the 
original Piersoni. While it occasionally 
throws a few Boston fronds, when growth 
is checked, its dwarf, compact habit makes 
it particularly desirable. It is especially 
valuable for growing in small-sized pots,
