Lovely Potted Ferns— Never So Cheap 
Beautiful Verona or Lace-Type Fern 
Jacksonii—Extremely strong grower. Resembling 
Sword Fern, quickly forming large, upright plant. 
Maidenhair Fern (Adiantum cuneatum)—The 
best known table Fern, with dainty, lacy fronds, 
unlike any other. 
Verona—The fronds are very fine and fluffy. Known 
as Lace or Baby Breath Fern. Dwarf or compact 
growth. 
Scholzeli (The Crested Fern)—The fronds, like 
Scottii, stand erect, and with a graceful arch form 
a plant of ideal shape, and they never break down, 
giving the plant ragged appearance and allowing 
a free circulation of air through the foliage, pre- 
vent the center of even the largest specimens from 
becoming defective or yellow. 
Very likely you have admired a friend’s house 
ferns? Why not have some of your own? Nothing so 
cheap, growing more beautiful from year to year. 
They last a life time. We marvel why they are not 
in every home. Not one fern but in every room. Fair, 
good, loose soil, partial sun-shine, living room tem- 
perature and loving care is all that is required. 
Plant at least 2 or 3 of the first size in a pot or 
crock, 4 to 5 inches across, or one large plant, then 
move into larger containers when necessary. 
Brighten your home with these lovely ferns, now 
cheap in price. In a year or two no amount of money 
could buy them from you. Order several while the 
price is down. 
Price of all Ferns in extra strong pot plants, 
2 for 25e; 15c each; large plants from 4 and 5 
inch pots, 60c each, postpaid. 
Teddy, Jr.—New dwarf Fern. Fronds are broad 
and beautifully tapered from the base to the tip, 
drooping just enough to make a graceful plant. 
Produces nearly four times as many fronds as any 
other Fern introduced. Compact, thrives under any 
condition. 
Roosevelt—Resembles the Boston Fern, but pro- 
duces many more fronds, thus making a handsom- 
er and bushier plant; in fact, it today is more 
popular with the florists than the Boston; it will 
make a larger plant in a shorter time. The fronds 
are beautifully undulated, giving it a very pretty 
rising effect. 
Boston Fern—This fern differs from the ordinary 
Sword Fern in having much longer fronds. This 
drooping habit adapts this variety for growing as 
a single specimen for a table or pedestal. 
Dwarf Boston—Same as Boston variety but a 
dwarf compact plant. 
Choicest Hardy Perennials 
Astilbes or Herbaceous Spirea 
These hardy Perennial herbs give such a striking 
effect to any hardy border or if planted as individual 
specimens in yard or garden. 
America—Deep pink. 
Gladstone—Immense trusses of snow white flowers. 
Rubens—Rosy red. Handsome feathered spikes. —

ing a bush in time of from 12 to 24 inches high and

German Iris 
The memory of the “Blue Flag’’ of the old-time 
gardens is one ever sweet to those whose lives were 
lived in such surroundings, and while the ‘“‘modern’”’ 
Irises if we may use the term, will remind one of the 
old days, they too, like everything else of these days 
have yielded to the influence of improvement, and 
there has been evolved a race of flowers absolutely 
bewildering in glory of their form and color.
