CHOICE STOVE FERNS 
ADIANTUM FUNCKII. 
This beautiful species is intermediate between A. permianim and A. Sancta: Catlurinic; partaking 
of the elegant habit of the former and of the robust growth of the latter. It is a very graceful 
species, and has been dedicated to M. Funck, the Director of the Zoological Gardens at Cologne. 15s. 
ADIANTUM GRACILLIMUM. 
A most elegant and distinct Fern, with very light and graceful fronds ; the multiplicity of minute 
pinnules and almost invisible ramifications of the racliis impart to the plant a peculiarly charming 
appearance ; the texture of the fronds, which are about a foot long and 8 to 9 inches across, is thin 
and fragile, and the colour is a very pale yellowish-tinted olive-green. 7s. 6 d. and 10s. 6 cl. 
ADIANTUM HENDERSONI. 
A novel and handsome variety, with elegant, well-expanded, doubly-winged fronds, about 8 or 9 
inches wide. Its young fronds are very attractive, being of a rich bronzy crimson colour, changing 
to dark green as they acquire age. It is of very distinct growth, the fronds being of a semi-drooping 
habit, and thus giving the plants a most graceful appearance. 10s. 6(7. and 15s.

surpassing it in the elegance of its large compound drooping fronds. It is a strikingly ornamental 
Fern. 3s. 6(7. and 5s. 
ADIANTUM SEEMANNI. 
A noble species, producing fronds 2 feet long, with a comparatively slender glossy black stipe, bare 
at the lower part, and bearing, towards the top, from 4 to 8 magnificent large pinna;, which are 
attached by a slender petiole art inch long. 10s. 6r7.

ADIANTUM VELUTINUM. 
A rroble species from Colombia, remarkable for the large size of its fronds, which are supradeeom- 
pound, the ultimate pinnules deorsely falcate and somewhat acuminate, and the sori oblong-reniform. 
A striking peculiarity of this plant is that the racliis, especially on the upper surface, is clothed with a 
felt of whity-brown cobwebby hairs, which gives it a pale velvety appearance. The same appearance 
is continued, though in a less degree, throughout the stipes. 10s. 6(7.

This most beautiful Fern is a native of Borneo. The stipes are quite smooth and pale coloured. 
The fronds are from 2 to 3 feet long, and from 1 to 2 feet wide at the base, triangular and pointed, of 
a graceful arching habit of growth, and most elegantly cut into a multitude of small blunt oblique 
soriferous segments ; their colour is a pale green, and they are very remarkable for the dotted 
appearance presented by the upper surface from the prominence of the sori. 3s. 6(7., 5s. and 7s. 6(7.
