PALMS, CYCLANTHS & CYCADS, 
Including ENCEPHALARTOS, MACROZAMIA, &c. 
The Palms constitute the most noble family in the vegetable kingdom, and 
afford sufficient diversity of aspect to allow of selections being made from them for 
the greenhouse, stove, or conservatory, to either of which Palms impart a richer 
tropical character than any other plants. Some of the miniature dwarf-growing 
kinds are, from their light and graceful forms, admirably adapted for table decoration, 
for vases, and for almost every pui-pose in which ornamentation is desired. The 
more hardy and larger kinds can be used for sub-tropical gardening, to which they 
impart a most luxuriant grandeur, evidence of which has been given in Battersea 
Park, and in other places where Palms have been thus used. 
Selections of Stove Palms, 6, 9 and 12 guineas per dozen. 
Selections for the Greenhouse, at 6, 9 and 12 guineas per dozen. 
Larger specimens, from 2, 3, 4 and 5 to 10 guineas each. 
Those marked with an asterisk * are kinds that will succeed in a greenhouse.
