V. PEDATIFIDA (?) Similar to V. Delphinifolia but is always found on high 
rocky ground; it has larger flowers which are lighter in color, open very 
broad and is certainly one of the choicest sorts; besides, it is one of the eas¬ 
iest to cultivate. We are inclined to believe that it will prove to be a new 
species. We have a fine stock. 10 cents, $1.00 per dozen. 
YUCCA. 
Y. ANGUSTIFOLIA. Narrow-leaved Yucca. 4 feet. A magnificent evergreen 
plant quite distinct from the better known Y. Filamentosa. It is well repre¬ 
sented by our cover illustration. This sort has been rigidly tested for hardi¬ 
ness and general utility and has received the highest commendations. It 
thrives in almost any soil from sand to a stiff clay, is at home on the des¬ 
sert plains and also in the mountains, and grows naturally as far north as 
South Dakota. Its ornamental value is unquestioned. 15 cents each, $1.50 
per dozen.
