Thyrsacanthus rutilans. Carmine Fountain. The following is an extract from Fleurs des Serres, by 
Mr. Louis Van Houtte. "To say that the plant has fulfilled all expectations is to keep within the 
truth. It was described and pictured as bearing racemes of flowers, 6 to 8 inches long, yet the 
plant before us is covered with sprays over zo inches in length, all garnished with flowers of the 
brightest carmine. It is a good plant in every meaning of the word, a precious plant for decorative 
purpo.ses, and a credit to Mr. Linden." This plant comes to us highly recommended, and we can 
corroborate all that has been said in its praise. Price, 4-inch pots, 50c each.
