plumosa, tills beautiful Cycadaceous plant has been imported from Queensland. From a 
small ovate stem, the scales of which are woolly, rise the erect spirally-twisted leaves, which 
have a flattened petiole. These leaves are furnished nearly to the base with narrow linear 
leaflets, which are set on at intervals of about a quarter of an inch, and are from six to eight 
inches long. The plant is remarkable for its distinct and elegant character. It has been 
awarded a First Class Certificate by the Royal Horticultural Society. 2, 3 and 4 guineas

stout stem, somewhat similar to P. dactylifera , but with the more slender and less rigid 
fronds of P. farinif era. The fruits are not much larger than the last named, and are of a 
glaucous red colour when mature 15$.

of dwarf compact habit, and will be found a useful and effective Palm for the decoration of

rupicola, this is one of the most exquisitely graceful among the smaller Palms, and in elegance 
takes a similar place among Phoonices to that of Cocos Weddelliana among Cocoses. It is of 
acaulescent habit, with wide -spreading arching pinnate leaves, broadly lance-shaped in out- 
line, with long narrow pinnje, the lower of which become gradually reduced to spines. It
