GLEICHENIAS 
Have been called the Queens of the Fern family ; and not inappropriately so, for they are certainly 
the most graceful and elegant of the wholo tribe, and always more or less rare from the difficulty 
arising in propagating them. Mr. W. 15. is, however, happy to announce, that he has succeeded in 
raising a splendid lot of G. Speluncre, and can now offer that hitherto rare kind at 10s. 6 d. per plant.
