THE GLORY FERN (Adiantum Farleyense Gloriosa) 



CYRTOMIUM ROCHFORDIANUM 



Dreer's Fine Ferns 



= Varieties of Special Merit: 



Adiantum Farleyense Gloriosa. 



The Glory Fern or Ruhm von Mordrecht. 



We sold over 30,000 plants of this fine Fern since last September, 

 and from many customers who bought limited quantities at first, 

 we received liberal repeat orders. 



For the grower of Ferns for cutting this new Maiden Hair will 

 undoubtedly prove a most important addition; it closely resembles 

 Adiantum Farleyense and will make a splendid substitute for that 

 fancy variety and it can be produced at much less cost, as it will 

 thrive under conditions in which Adiantum Farleyense could not 

 exist. 



Anyone who successfully grows the ordinary varieties of Adian- 

 tum such as Cuneatum, Croweanum and Hybridum, can grow it 

 under precisely the same conditions given to these sorts. 



We have a splendid lot of 2'/4 inch pots ready to send out now. 

 $2.00 per doz.; $15.00 per 100; 8140.00 per 1000. 



Adiantum Pulchrum Elegans. 



Some 6 or 8 years since we sent out a beautiful small leaved 

 Adiantum under the name of Charlottae which was greatly admired 

 but which never became popular, due to the fact that it had very 

 weak stems and therefore did not make shapely plants; in this new 

 variety in which the foliage is very similar this weakness has been 

 overcome and this new variety will undoubtedly prove a most 

 valuable addition where fine foliage is desired. 2'/4 inch pots, $1.50 

 per doz.; $10.00 per 100. 



Adiantum Croweanum. 



V^'e are the sole distributers of Mr. Crowe's stock of 

 this valuable fern. 



This for many years has been the standard variety for general 

 commercial work. We will have a nice lot of 3-inch pots. $2.00 

 per doz.; 815.00 per ICO; $140.00 per 1000. 



Adiantum Hybridum.

Cyrtomium Rochfordianum. 



The Crested Holly Fern. 



The Most Valuable Decorative Fern of Recent Introduction. 

 A most important addition to our list of Ferns. Its foliage is of a 

 rich, deep, glossy green color, the pinnaae or leaflets besides being 

 wavy or undulated are also deeply cut or toothed, giving the plant 

 a graceful light appearance, which makes it valuable not only as a 

 dish Fern but for decorative work and apartment use. 



2 '/4 -inch pots, $3.00 per 100; .825.00 per 1000. 



Pteris Parkeri. 



A giant form of Pteris Majus which promises to make an excel- 

 lent subject to grow into large plants in 6 or 7-inch pots for room 

 decoration. This is the Fern which attracted great attention at the 

 International Flower Show in London. England last year. We 

 offer 4 inch pot plants at 30 cts. each; 83.00 per doz. 



Pteris Childsi. 



This beautiful variety is to Pteris what Farleyense rs to Adian- 

 tums and like that variety produces no spore, so lhat propagation 

 is by the rather slow method of division, which will keep it a rare 

 variety. The plant is of strong growth, attaining a height of about 

 20 inches; fronds large, pinnae deeply dentated and undulated, tips 

 crested. Makes a beautiful specimen for exhibition. 



Specimen plants, 75 cts. each. 



Polypodium QIaucum Cristatum. 



A perfect gem and entirely distinct from all other Ferns, and a 

 splendid subject to grow into specimen plants, the fronds attain a 

 height of about 2 feet, and are of a metallic glaucous-blue color, 

 with the edges of the pinnae wavy and crispate, giving the plant a 

 graceful, unique appearance. 75 cts. each.
