VINES FOR HOUSE AND CONSERVATORY DECORATION. 
37 
Stove and Greenhouse Vines. 
Many of our tender climbers and creepers have very handsome flowers, while others are attractive for their beautiful foliage. 
For the walls and ceilings of greenhouses and conservatories, for windows, baskets, etc., they form beautiful drapery. 
ASPARAGUS SPRENGERI. 
The great value and (U«irability of this comparatively new 
plant have ali'eadybeen well proved. It is one of the quickest- 
growing plants we know, making great, pendulous masses of 
feathery fronds, often 4 feet long, in a short time. Its uses are 
entirely different from those of the otlier forms of Asjjaragus. 
Grown in hanging baskets, or in large i)ots upon a plant stand, 
as shown in our picture, it rivals in pretty effects even the 
Boston fern. In fine cut-flower work it is most iiseful, the 
fronds retaining their freshness for weeks. An excellent house- 
plant, as it withstands dry atmospheres and succeeds in almost 
any position. 50 ots. and upward. 
Of the other popular forms of Asparagus we also have 
a fine stock. For its own particular use each has become 
indispensable. See below. 
BOUGAINVILLEA GLABRA SANDERIANA. 
This beautiful flowering plant fully justifies all that was 
claimed for it when introduced. It flowers in solid masses of 
rosy crimson, making a floral display that is really dazzling. It is val- 
uable also on account of the length of time that the flowers continue — 
from early spring until midwinter. The plant is easily grown, blooms 
when quite small, and when it reaches large size makes probably the 
showiest specimen that can be grown. It is one of the finest decora- 
tive plants for Easter, and will unquestionably become one of the 
mo.st important plants for decorative purposes at that season. $1.50 up. 
Some better known Bougainvilleas, all of them beautiful, 
are offered below.
