CROTON SPIRALIS. 
This is a very distinct and effective variety, both on account of its form and colouring. The [spiral 
twisting of tho leaf blade, which has suggested its name, is very marked and very constant. The 
leaves are from 9 to 12 inches long, and about an inch wide, deep green, with a broad golden yellow 
bar up the centre, the green margin twisting spirally around the golden bar, some leaves being partially 
spiral and partially undulate. The older leaves become a deep bronzy green, almost purple, and the 
mid-rib a deep crimson. One <?f the very best of the Crotons for ornamental purposes. It has been 
imported from the South Sea Islands, and was awarded a First Class Certificate by the Floral 
Committee of the Royal Horticultural Society. 10s. 6 d., 15s., and 1 guinea.
