 although one has to see the plant in growth to appreciate its"beauty and value. 



A sport from the Piersonii tern, but is much more beautiful. It is as different from Piersonii Fern 

 as that is from the Boston. The small side pinnae are again subdivided, producing an exquisite and 

 beautiful effect, changing the entire character of the fronds, which measure less than half the length and 

 about twice the breadth of the fronds of the Piersonii Fern. The fronds also assume an entirely different 

 form, the side pinnae standing at right angles to the mid-rib of the frond, making the frond appear double

NEPHROLEPIS BARROWSII 



An Improved Variety of the Piersonii Fern. 



In this new variety we have a dense compact form {of the Pierson Fern, in which the fronds are not 

 only shorter and broader, but it grows bushier, and what is most important, its fronds are supported on 

 stout, stiff mid-ribs, which gives the plant a much shaplier form. 



Strong Young Plants, each 3Sc. Doz. $3.50. Per 100 $25.00. . 



NEW NEPHROLEPIS SCOTTII 



Of much dwafer and bushier growth than the Boston Fern. The fronds droop gracefully and are no 

 as long and coarse as the Boston. It is a rapid grower and to see it in all stages of growth from a runnel 

 in the bench to a 14-inch pot specimen will convince you that it will be in great demand as a house fern,
