The J^ew Feather Fern. 
“ ELEGANTISSIMA.” 
The photograph of the frond above gives 
a very good idea of the feathery, plume¬ 
like fronds, although one has to see the 
plant in growth to appreciate its beauty and 
value. It is as different from Piersoni Fern 
as that is from the Boston. The side pinnae 
are again subdivided, producing an exquis¬ 
ite and beautiful effect, changing the entire 
character of the fronds, which measureless 
than half the length and about twice the 
breadth of the fronds of the'Pierson Fern. 
20c. each; 2 for 35c.; 5 for 70c.

This is a new climbing vine of 
striking and remarkable beauty,

the South and Pacific Coast , where it 
will give immense satisfaction. It 
is a strong, vigorous climber, suit¬ 
able for covering walls, porches, 
verandas, fences, etc., has handsome 
foliage, and is covered for months 
at a time with splendid clusters of
