The Boston Fern. 



This graceful 

 Nephrolepis 

 differs from the ordinary Fern in hav- 

 ing much longer fronds, which fre- 

 ?[uently attain a length of 4 feet. These 

 rondsarch and droop over very grace- 

 fully, on account of which it is frequent- 

 ly called the " Fountain Fern." 

 15c.: 3 for 30c. 



The 



Nephrolepis Scotti. o^arf Boston Fern. 



This is the latest and probably the best house 

 plant of all the Sword Ferns, identical to thp 

 celebrated Boston Fern, except that it is smaller in 

 all itsparts, more compact, and makes a nice speci- 

 men in a short time. Soc. ; 3 for 60c. 



J^ew Fern, "Piersoni" 



The feathery plume-like 

 fronds grow broad and 

 heavy, measuring 6 inches 

 across, increasing in beauty 

 as they develop. On ac- 

 count of the weight of the 

 foliage, the plant assumes 

 an exceedingly graceful ap- 

 pearance. 15c.; 3 for 30c. 



T^ Jf^ify F^rn, 



PteriS Jtrgyrea. tmct and valuable for 

 fern dishes or house culture. Large, bold 

 foliage, with broad band of white through 

 the center of each frond. 15c.; 8 for 35c.

 green color are like delicate lacework.

 Boston Fern, and the fronds when
