large number of pitchers with very dark chocolate 
brown spots ; one of the most desij'able varieties 
yrown. 
N. Eyermanii. A very distinct hybrid, aud one of the 
most beautiful of the highlj' colored varieties ; though

lection $3 .50 to $5 00

robust growth. The pitchers, which 
are highly colored, are produced freely, 
nearly every leaf bearing a pitcher of 
good size ,S 50 to 5 00 
N. Keiuiedyi 3 00 to 4 00

N. Raf&esiana. The true Bast Indian 
species, remarkable for the long pro-

the best, and it is one of the pai-ents 
of all the really good hybrids we 
have to-day 3 50 to

This is one of the grandest new hy- 
brids yet introduced ; a free and vig- 
oi'ous grower, producing its im- 
mense pitchers freely ; it resembles N. . 
AmeMana more than any other variety, 
though its pitchers are of lighter color; 
a desirable plant 5 00 to 
IT. Savageiana. Is much in the way of N. 
CraigkuHt, though it differs from that 
variety in that the pitchers are not 
quite as long but broader, like those 
of Hookeriana. One of the best soi'ts yet 
raised 3 50 to

geous pitchers in the way of 2V. Sfe-
