New Pampas Grasses. 
Pampas Grass, like almost every other plant cultivated by man, has shown a tendency 
to improve under cultivation, and especially by scientific crossing of tlie already existing 
kinds. The following are new varieties, some of them having originated here and some 
in Europe. The seed does not always produce plants like the original from which it was 
obtained; some are belter, some not as good. It is the only way of obtaining new and 
valuable varieties. 
Gynerium, Giganteum Carminenm. Well established plants yield one hundred or more 
very large light Carmine Plumes which stand twelve or fifteen feet above tlie ground. 
Tlie richest soil yields the darkest colored plumes. Boots, 50 cents each; New Seed, 
per packet, 50 cents. 
Gynerium, Elegans Pumillum. A miniature Pampas Grass, full grown plants being 
about three feet in height, narrow drooping leaves and plumes which are just the size 
for making bouquets; may be grown in a pot or box. Boots, $2.00. 
Gynerium, Violaceiim. Violet colored plumes. Boots, 75 cents each; New Seed, per 
packet, 50 cents. 
Gynerium, Foquimbo. Graeefulla drooping carmine plumes which are borne abun¬ 
dantly, and well above the leaves. Boots, 75 ets. each; New Seed, per packet, 50cts. 
Gynerium, Roseuin. Robust plant with broad bluish green leaves; the plumes, which 
are very soft and feathery, are of an elegant* light magenta hue. Boots, $1.50 each; 
New Seed, per packet, 50 cents. 
Gynerium, Mammoth Silver Flume. Bears great silky silvery plumes which average 
over two and a half feet long and about twelve inches across. Boots, $3 00; New 
Seed, per packet, 75 cents. 
Gynerium, Common Silver Plume, and other good varieties. Boots, 25 cents; New 
Seed, mixed, per packet, 15 cents. 
Sample Plumes from all the above named varieties may be seen at the Nursery. 
Pampas Seed should be planted in shallow boxes of soil composed of le'if mold and 
sand; cover lightly and keep well watered and in the shade; in about two weeks the 
plants will appear. When the seedlings have attained the growth of a few inches trans¬ 
plant into pots to grow a while or to the open ground if ready.

As Botanical Collector for foreign Nursery and Seedsmen, I am often led among the 
mountains and forests, and can furnish Boots, Seeds or Cuttings of most of the plauts 
growing in Northern California at a fair price, by giving due notice.
