Paints. 
This species of plants has almost jumped, so to speak, into popular 
favor the past few years. They are without doubt the par excellence 
of d e c o r a t i ve plants ; 
nothing can exceed* in 
beauty or graceful ap- 
pearance a few Palms 
scattered on the lawn or 
placed in the window. 
They require plenty of 
water, the foliage fre- 
quently washed or 
syringed, and that is all 
the care they need ; any 
temperature suits them 
but actual freezing. The 
foliage is massive and 
they are of slow growth, 
but well kept plants be- 
come more valuable 
every year, hence they 
are a source of beatity 
as well as profit.
