Cycas Qevoluta* 
(Sago Palm.) 
These are magnificent plants, of hoble 
and majestic habit, and most impres¬ 
sive. I hey are probably the most 
valuable decorative plants grown, both 
for lawn and house decoration; their 
heavt , glossy, deep green fronds resist 
alike the gas, dust and cold to which 
decorative plants are frequently 
exposed. I offer dormant stems, 
imported direct from Japan, all sound 
and in good order. Place the stems 
about one-third to one-half in a pot that 
is about an inch larger than the stem all 
around. As you fill in the dirt use a 
piece of lath to pack the soil as hard as 
you can. Use a soil that will firm hard. 
Stems, % to 1 pound each ; 
30c. each; 2 for 50c. Larger 
stems, 50c. each.
