NOMENCLATURE OF PLANTS IN THIS CATALOGUE. 
The system of nomenclature, approved by Professor Dr. Karl Schu- 
mann of Berlin, Germany, in his ''Monographia Cac face arum,'' Dr. Weher of 
Paris, France, and the ''German Cactus Society,'^ has been used throughout 
in the naming of cactus, while nomenclature in use at the "Kew garden'' of 
London, and the ''New York Botanical Garden'' is followed strictly in the 
naming of the remaining plants^ more commonly designated by the general 
term: "succulents.'' Echeverias and their like (crassulaceae) are named in 
the system of Dr. J. N. Rose of Washington, D. C., and Dr. N. L. Britton of 
New York. 
I dislike exceedingly, and am much opposed to, catalogues which do not 
represent stock on hand, but are merely an ennumeration on paper of all known 
cacti, the same species^ in many instances, appearing under three and more 
names. 
Plants marked with ? (question mark) I cannot guarantee for correct 
name, as they are either new introduction and have not flowered with me as 
yet, to search for correct name, or else where there is a dispute in the "nomen- 
clature."
