NEPENTHES. This curious and interesting class of 
plants thrives best in a warm, moist atmosphere, and 
all the forms are usually suspended from the roof in 
baskets. Complete shade and a compost of two parts 
peat with one of sphagnum moss, plenty of drainage 
and an abundant supply of water, will grow them to 
perfection. They should always be thoroughly shad- 
ed. Our collection of these highly ornamental plants 
is unequaled in America, many new and beautiful 
varieties obtained by hybridization, which are not to 
be found elsewhere, being included. The large size 
of their interesting pitchers, the brilliant coloring and 
variety of form, make them desirable for any collec- 
tion of plants.
