The remaining pages of this catalog pic¬ 
ture species primarily of interest to collec¬ 
tors of rare plants. The order of species 
described in the 4 volumes of “The Cacta- 
ceae” by Britton and Rose, is followed as 
closely as possible. This orders is followed in 
our nursery list for collectors of rare plants. 
Because of government "estrictions on im¬ 
portations of foreign plants it has been im¬ 
possible for a number of years to obtain 
plants of many species hereafter illustrated. 
The problem of obtaining these rare species 
has been solved by raising them from seed. 
Our cover illustrates one section of the 
several hundred nursery flats devoted to 
the propagation of these exotics.
