LYGODIUM SCANDENS, 



(Japanese Climbing Fern). 



A climbing Fern from the East Indies. A most graceful 

 plant, growing from one to fifty feet, as desired. Quite as 

 easy of culture as the Smilax; although climbing when 

 supported by strings or wires, it can be used with equal 

 advantage as a drooping plant, for baskets or vases ; as a 

 house plant for the parlor, nothing is mere easy of culture. 



It is now preferred by many florists to Smilax for tine cut 

 flower work, being much more beautiful and nearly a»

MYRSIPHYLLUM ASPARAGOIDES, 



(Smilax). 



There is no climbing plant in cultivation that surpasses 

 this in the graceful beaut} - of its foliage, and its peculiar 

 wavy formation renders it one of the most valuable of all 

 plants for vases or hanging baskets, as it can be used 

 either to climb or to droop, as required. In cut flowers, 

 particularly for wreaths, it is now considered indispensa- 

 ble by all florists. Its hard texture enables it to keep with- 

 out wilting for several days after being cut. Its cultiva- 

 tion has now become a specialty in every large city, green 

 houses being devoted solely to its cultivation. Foi a par- 

 lor or window plant it is indispensable.
