NEW, RARE AND DESIRABLE GREENHOUSE PLANTS. 
75: 
JUNCUS ZEBBINUS. 
This remarkable Japanese plant has a most peculiar appearance, the idea suggested by a group of it 
being that of a cluster of porcupine q^uills. The plant, which is a true Hush, throws up erect terete leaves, 
but these, instead of being green, are transversely banded with white and green, the colours being, in 
most cases, pretty evenly distributed ; sometimes the wliite preponderates, the smface being either 
wholly white, or the green bands being narrower and less conspicuous j but in the best marked leaves, 
the green and white portions occupy alternately nearly equal bands. 7s. 6U. and 10s. 6U.
