They would call attention to their large variety of rare and 
beautiful EVERGREENS for a 
WINTER GARDEN, 
Where, instead of the leafless desolation which generally 
reigr.s seven months in the year, every gentleman may surround 
himself, even in the depth of Winter, with all the fresh green¬ 
ness of Spring and Summer. For our climate and long Win¬ 
ters there is nothing that will compare with a garden of ever- 
greens, unless it is a 
GARDEN OF GLASS. 
Where, in apartments of various temperatures, all the fruits 
and flowers of tropical climates can be grown in profusion. 
To those who intend to erect such houses, we shall be happy 
to show our structures adapted to each class of plants, and to 
show also the young and thrifty saleable plants of more than a 
thousand varieties, from the glossy leaf and varied flower of 
the well known Camellia, to the more rare and curious Orchids, 
and the novel foliage plants, whose leaves present the delicate 
or gorgeous coloring of flowers, and are beautiful, not only fora 
short period of bloom, but throughout the whole year. For 
blooming under glass, or for bedding upon the lawn, a large 
variety of planes is cultivated in quantity; and for the 
ROSE GARDEN, 
Some five hundred of the choicest varieties have been selected, 
and are cultivated on their own roots, at very low prices. 
Catalogues will be furnished to all who apply by mail to
