THE HASKELL AVENUE FLORAL CO., DALLAS, TEXAS 
GENERAL ASSORTMENT 
We have an elegant assortment of Ferns, 
of which space will not allow of description 
here. We will send ten beautiful plants, 
different sorts, by mail, for $1, or single 
plants 15 cts., 25 cts. for two. 
Ostrich Plume Pern 
Boston Fern. 
mand for it will be very great. We 
want our customers to be sure and in- 
clude this plant in their order. While 
the price is a little higher than that 
of other Ferns, it is well worth it, 
and we predict the price will not be 
much lower for some time to come, as 
the demand for this plant .will bo 
greater than for any Fern heretofore 
sent out. To see it is to want it; 
every one who sees it in our place 
goes wild over it, and no plant attracts 
the attention of every visitor as this 
one does. W’e have a good stock and 
will fill orders at prices given as long 
as the stock lasts. The fronds are 
long and graceful, like those of the 
Boston Fern, but the leaflets are com- 
pound, and each side leaf is a minia- 
ture leaf of itself; it is a splendid 
grower. Small plants, from 2%-inch 
pots, 25 cts.; 4-inch, 50 cts.; large 
specimens, $1.50 to $5. 
FERNS 
BOSTON DROOPERS 
This is the most elegant of all jardiniere 
or pot-plants. The cut gives a very faint 
idea of the beauty of these graceful plants; 
they are of easy growth and soon make large 
specimens, and no more attractive plant 
can be had for the dining-room or library. 
They are an elegant porch plant for sum- 
mer; no insects bother them, and plenty of 
water is all the requirement of their culture; 
every one should have one or more of this 
delightful plant. Small plants, by mail, 
10 cts. each: 4-inch pot plants, by express, 
25 cts. ; fine specimens from $1 to $5, accord- 
ing to size. Note that the $5 size are grown 
in 12-inch pots, and are heavy, covering a 
space of about 4 to 6 feet, and would make 
elegant exhibition plants. 
Ficus elastica 
(Rubber Tree) 
The well-known Rubber Tree of commerce. 
These make the most elegant of all jardiniere 
plants; no insects bother them, and they 
have large, leathery, glossy leaves of the 
richest green, overlaid in the new growth 
with a tinge of red that gives them a very 
attractive appearance. We have heavy fine 
plants that will make specimens in a short 
time; they will stand the hottest sun without 
being in any way harmed; fine for cemetery 
planting. Large plants, by express, 4-inch 
pots, 50 cts.; G-inch pots, about '4 feet tall, 
$1.50; large specimens, from $2.50 to $5. 
( Nephrolepis Piersoni) 
The grandest of all Ferns. This sterling 
novelty has met with the highest honors, 
having been awarded six gold medals by the 
Society of American Florists, the Horti- 
cultural Society of New York, the Big Kansas 
City Exhibition, the Massachusetts Horti- 
cultural Society, the Pennsylvania Horti- 
cultural Society, the Providence, Rhode 
Island, Horticultural Society, the Chicago 
Horticultural Society, and silver medals and 
certificates of merit wherever put on exhibi- 
tion. No single plant has ever received the 
honors bestowed upon this Fern, and the de- 
Ficus elastica.
