ATHYEIUM GORINGIANUM PICTUM. 
This handsome variety, which attracted a good deal of attention at the International Horticul- 
tural Exhibition, is remarkable as forming another addition to the small number as yet known of 
variegated Ferns. It is probably Japanoso, and forms a somewhat triangular frond of drooping 
character, marked with a grey baud along each side of tlio reddish mid-rib of the pinmu. Among 
Ferns of a hardy or half-hardy character it forms a very decided acquisition. 
Trice 21s. each. 
AUBRIETIA PURPUREA VARIEGATA. 
This remarkable and highly interesting novelty is a well-defined, variegated form of the well- 
known Aubrielia purpurea ; every loaf is broadly margined with white, thus making it an extremely 
effective object ; indeed, the harmony of its pretty lavender blue flowers and neat variegation makes 
a most pleasing impression. 
Being quite hardy, this will be a useful plant for spring gardening, rock-work, &c., and unques- 
tionably one of the prettiest novelties for edging small beds. 
A well-executed drawing of it, by Andrews, can be seen at my Establishment. 
The entire stock was purchased from Mr. D. Wood, Brough, Yorkshire. 
Trice 2». 6<?. and 3s. Gd. each, or 1 8s. per dozen. 
BERTOLONIA PUBESCENS. 
This plant has been introduced from Eucador. Its leaves are light green, broadly banded down the 
centre with dark chocolate. It received First Class Certificates from the Koyal Horticultural and 
Royal Botanic Societies. 
Trice 5s. each. 
BIGNONIA ARGYREA VIOLASCENS. 
A pretty ornamental stove climber, introduced from South America. The leaves of this plant are 
exquisite, showing two or throe forms of variegation at the same time ; when jmung they are a puiqdish 
green with the mid-rib and veins bordered on each side with bright violet rose, and as they become 
matured change to a bright green ground colour, with borders on each side of the mid-rib and veins 
of silvery whiteness. The under surface of the leaves is bright purple crimson, so that witli all these 
colours the plant produces an effect of the most pleasing description. 
Trice 10s. Gd., 15s., and 21s. each. 
BOUGAINVILLEA LATERITIA. 
A showy stove climber which can be also trained and grown as a specimen exhibition plant. Like 
the other Bougainvilleas its great beauty consists in the floral leaves or bracts which accompany the 
flowers, but instead of being mauve, as in the other kinds hitherto bloomed in this country, are of a 
salmony-pink, and consequently a very distinct and desirable variety. 
It has received several First Class Certificates. 
The enth’e stock was purchased from Mr. Charles Turner, of Slough. This can be oflered in 
various sizes, including a few fine specimens. 
A well executed drawing of it, by Andrews, can be seen at my Establishment. 
Trice 21s. each; specimens 42s. and 63s. each. 
CALAMUS DEALBATA. 
A beautiful little stove palm from Madagascar, with pinnate arching leaves, having narrow leaflets 
silvery beneath ; the stalks are brownish, clothed with long slender spines which point backwards. 
Trice 42s. each.
