and will be esteemed both for planting out in the flower garden and lawn, and pot culturo ; for 
conservatory deooration, as well as being one of our finest ornamental-leaved plants for exhibition.

PODOCARPUS MACROPHYLLUS VARIEGATUS. 
A handsome greenhouse or conservatory evergreen Conifer, introduced from Japan, with linear

times white striped, and sometimes wholly white, forming albino branches, contrasting strongly with 
the deep green of the rest of the plant. 
It is a striking and pretty decorative plant, from the pure white and effective character of the 
variegation.

angustifolia ; the leaves — thorny, as in that plant — are, however, considerably larger, being 4 to 6 
feet long, and 4 to 6 inches broad ; its peduncle, about 5 inches in diameter, forms a pyramid 20 to 
30 feet high, and 10 to 12 feet wide. The sprigs of the same, turning inwards, are covered with 
thousands of white blossoms, almost as large again as those of Polyanthus tuberosa, and of the same 
fragrance. The time of blooming lasts several weeks. 
Price 15.s. and 1} guineas each.

with bands and margins of a creamy whiteness, some of the shoots are also variously blotched 
with the same colour, which gives the plant a distinctive feature ; it is of dwarf and compact 
bushy habit, a free grower, and one of the most effective novelties of the season. It will be found 
of great service for adorning the greenhouse or conservatory when flowering plants have ceased to 
bloom.
