Kentia Belmoreana. 
" Queen of Palms." 
The Kentias are peerless among Palms both fm- licaulv iiiid utility. 
Although of such exceeding grace, they have fronds of a toui^li, h-uthery tex- 
ture, that renders them very durable, even under e:ueless treatment. This 
same fine trait also renders them immune to attacks ot diseases and insects, 
to the baleful influences of dust, gas and dry air, and enables them to keep 
their fresh, elegant appearance even through rough usage. 
Krntia Belmoreana is, beyond question, the finest Palm grown. Of 
graceful, compact, spreading growth, its fine stems are well furnished with 
broad, shining leaves quite to the base, so that the plants are beautiful even 
when very small. The long, tapering leaf-segments have a pretty habit of 
curving at their tips, which has given the plant the name, also, of "Curly 
Palm." This Palm is of good form for any decorative purpose, — from all 
our great and varied stock we could select notliiug finer and more beau- 
tiful. We have an immense stock of this grand Palm, in which all sizes 
are represented, and all are in splendid condition, well hardened and well 
furnished with leaves. $2.50 to $7.t. See illustration.

Fountain Palm. 
Kentia Belmoreana. 
From the exquisite grace 
of this species its popular name of "Fountain Palm" probably originated. A fine, 
well-developed plant is composed of many wide-sweejjing, arching fronds clothed 
with long, narrow pinna", which along the base of the fronds gradually develop 
into spines. This graceful individuality is noticeable even in young plants, and 
makes them valuable for deeoration at an eai'ly age. A feathery, rapid-growing, 
durable Palm of easy culture, %'i and upward. 
Phoenix Reclinata.

green. It is a long-enduring Palm, of easiest culture, useful and durable in all 
sorts of indoor decorations; fine also for vases and outdoor sumnier usage. Young 
plants soon form fine specimens. Native to Natal and Zuliiland. $2 and upward.
