DREER'S FINE FERNS 



VARIETIES OF SPECIAL MERIT

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

 per doz.; $15.00 per 100; $140.00 per 1000.

 4-inch pots $1.50 per doz.; $12.00 per 100. 



Adiantum Farleyense Gloriosa. 



The Glory Fern or Ruhm von Mordrecht. 



This variety introduced three years since has proven a most 

 valuable addition for the grower of choice fronds for cutting pur- 

 poses. 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^ -inch pots ready to send out now. 

 $2.00 per doz.; $15.00 per 100: $140.00 per 1000. 



6-inch pots, $1.00 each. 



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. 4-inch pots, $2.00 

 per doz.; $15.00 per 100.

 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.

 larger specimens for decorative work, it makes a bold attractive 

 plant of a rich deep green color.

Pteris Childsi. 



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

 tums, arni like that variety produces no spore, so that propagation 

 is by the rather slow method of division, whicli 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. 



Fine plants, 5 inch pots, 75 cts. each.
