HENRY A. DREER, Philadelphia, Pa. 



OUR LEADING 



SPECIALTY 



We again call special attention to our stock of Palms, which is the largest 

 and most complete in the country, especially in the varieties and sizes used in 

 the general florist trade, our stock of Kentias alone occupying over one and a half 

 acres of glass, and all other popular varieties being on hand in proportionate 

 quantities. 



I Cocos Weddeliana. 



We have greatly increased the area of glass devoted to tiiis most 

 graceful of all Palms and we are now devoting five houses covering 

 half an acre of ground to its cultivation, and while heretofore very 

 few plants of it were grown into sizes above 2j£ and 3-inch pots, used 

 principally in fern dishes, we have this season grown many thousands 

 into 5-inch pots, these are a beautiful lot of plants which are certain to 

 prove valuable not only in fine decorative work but which will also 

 appeal to the retail buyer as a room and table plant. We especially 

 recommend the single five-inch pot plants, they are certain'to please.

Bactris Major. 



Not a new, but a comparatively rare Palm, which, where the tem- 

 perature of a warm conservatory can be given, is an interesting subject,
