NEW PLANTS. 
POLYSTICHTJM ANGULARE PARVISSIMUM. 
A very pretty, distinct, neat-gi'owing, hardy Fern ; fronds thick, of a deep green oolom’, growing 
from eight to ten inches long, with an acuminate apex, and numerous pinnse, which are crowded with 
curiously minute pinnules overlapping each other, these latter being so blunt as to have almost a 
quadrate figure, and so small that they do not measure more than a line in either direction. 
Price los. and 21s. each. 
PRIMULA INTERMEDIA. 
There is always a charm about pretty spring flowers, and this is a gem, and a perfectly hardy 
plant too ; it is a hybrid between Primulas ciliata and minima, the habit is robust and vigorous, and 
it blooms in the most profuse manner, throwing strong trusses of flowers, on each of which is a very 
large number of pips. It is sweet-scented, and the colour a brilliant purplish-crimson or beautiful 
mauve, and is admirably adapted for spring garden decoration, whether planted in beds, clumps, or 
edgings. 
It received a First Class Certificate when exhibited at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Regent’s 
Park. 
The entire stock was purchased from Mr. Thomas Fuller, of Leeds. 
A wcll-c.xccuted drawing of it, by Andrews, can be seen at my Establishment. 
Price 7s, 6d. each. 
PTERIS CRETICA SERRULATA VARIEGATA. 
An interesting variegated hybrid, intermediate between P. serrulata and P. cretica albo-lincata, 
the fronds are pinnate, and prettily serrated, each pinnse banded down the centre with a white stripe, 
and instead of the spreading habit of the last named Fern, its gro^dih is more rigid and compact. 
It has received various Certificates of Merit, and can be recommended for cultivation in a 
greenhouse. 
Price 2s, 6d, each. 
RHODEA JAPONICA MACROPHYLLA POL. MARGINATIS. 
An ornamental greenhouse plant of bold habit, with spear-shaped lanceolate leaves broadly 
margined with creamy white. It is easily cultivated and highly decorative. 
Price 21s. and 42s. each, 
ROGERIA GRATISSIMA. 
The flowers of this plant are perfect gems for bouquets. They are produced in elegant 
corj'mbs of a delicate pink colour. It blooms so freely that it is nearly always in flower, added to 
which it is deliciously fragrant, and the habit of the plant is neat and compact. 
It has been introduced from Teopisca, Chiapa, at an altitude of 7,500 feet above the level of the 
sea, consequently in the cool region, so that cultivated in a cold stove or warm greenhouse, it 
succeeds admirably. 
Prices 10s. 6<7., 15s. and 21s. each. 
SAURAUJA SARAPIGIENSIS. 
This handsome foliage stove plant is an introduction from Costa Rica. From its noble aspect it 
is a worthy associate with Spheerogyne and Cyanophyllum, and although only recently introduced it has 
already produced leaves twenty inches long by nine wide, which when young are of a pleasant reddish 
tint, and the mid-rib in all the leaves is of a bright red, which latter contrasts prettily with the green 
leaves. 
The entii-e stock of this plant has been purchased from M. Linden, of Brussels. 
Price 21s. and 42s. each.
