Not a new, but a comparatively rare Palm, which, where 

 the temperature of a warm conservatory can be given, is an 

 interesting subject, on account of the many long spines with

Cocos Weddeliana. 



The most elegant and graceful of all the smaller Palms. Its 

 slender, erect stem is freely furnished with its gracefully arching

 tiful specimens in 5-inch pots, 18 to 24 inches high, $1.50 each.

 foliage. See illustration on opposite page.
