NEW AND CHOICE BEDDING PLANTS. 
POA TRIVIALIS ARGENTEA ELEGANS. 
SILVER-LEAVED MEADOW GRASS. 
This plant is commended as ono of the most useful and beautiful varieties of hardy Grasses, with 
silvery white margined leaves, yet introduced to gardens. It is strictly a perennial in habit, forming 
a remarkably dense and compact many-branched growth from the base ; and by its natural and 
free tendency to omit roots upon the under shoots, it makes a close yet gracefully froo growth from 
4 to 9 inches in height. 
By forming ornamental portable spocimens and suspondod basket groups of this variety in the 
eai-ly winter and spring months for conservatory and greenhouse decoration, it will at those seasons 
be found by far the most bi'illiant and picturesque plant in its tribe. 
Price Is. and Is. 6 d. each.
