CEROPEGIA WOODI. 
A very ornamental and graceful trailing plant with slender greyish branches bearing small 
orbicular fleshy leaves, most prettily marbled with silvery white on the upper surface. Intermingled 
with the leaves are small globose tubers from which roots emerge. The flowers are pinkish in 
colour, tubular, distended at the base and expanding at the top into five dark purple segments united 
at the tips in the form of a crown. The variegated foliage and curious structure commend tliis 
plant alike to the eonnoissour and to tho botanist. It is a native of Natal, and will form a most 
interesting and excellent basket plant for a warm greenhouse, and is suihible for rockeries or other 
decorative purposes. 2s. 6d., 3s. 6d. and 5s. 
CRYPTANTHUS NITIDUM.

remarkable for its compact rosette-like growth. It is a stemless species with densely crowded, 
.spreading foliage of a mo.st attractive character and neat growth. Tlie leaves are sessile, lanceolate 
acuminate, wavy and denticulate at the margins, dark olive green, with a broad band of cream

white with raised reticulations. 2s. Gd., 3s. 6rf. and 5,s. 
DRACJENA VICTORIA. 
Awarded a First Class Certificate by the Royal Horticultural Society. 
This exceedingly attractive new Dracaena is certainly one of the most handsome species yet 
introduced. It has been imported from Brazil, and belongs to the same section as D. Zindeni, from 
which it is quite distinct not only in tho style of its variegation, but in the brightness and constancy 
of the coloration, tho golden yellow 
of the leaves deepening with age 
instead of losing colour, as does 
J). Zindeni. Of noble habit, the 
plant is furnished with broad and 
gracefully recurving leaves, wavy at 
the margins, tho whole leaf being 
bright golden yeUow, with a central 
baud of bright green, ornamented 
with narrow streaks varying in colour 
from greyish to creamy yellow. Vide
