RED CROWN CACTUS 
(Rebutia minuscula) 
One can not praise the Crown Cacti enough. They 
are all small plants, seldom exceeding 2" in diameter, 
most of them bearing many young ones in a ring about 
them. In the spring they are covered for weeks with 
their brilliant blossoms which are generally bright red, 
sometimes crimson or orange. The buds spring from 
beneath the plant. They are extremely easy to grow 
and like just a little shade and during the summer 
Quite a bit of moisture. They are practically spineless. 
Large specimens 75c. Flowering size 35c and 50c. 
GOLDEN BALL 
(Notocactus Leninghausii) 
This I think is one of the most beautiful of 
specimens with its soft, brilliant gold spines 
thickly covering each shallow ridge. Like 
other Ball Cacti it is easy to grow and very 
effective in bowls. Nice plants 35c. Larger 
specimens 50c. 
CACTUS GROWING IN OUTDOOR FRAMES 
At My Nursery 
In these frames tens of thousands of cacti 
are growing and gaining the vigor and health 
that make our plants outstanding. At first they 
are reared in special greenhouses and given 
almost hourly care for at the beginning the 
tiny plantlets require much careful attention. 
After a year and several transplantings they 
are large enough to thrive in the open and are 
then transferred outdoors. There they are 
given daily attention by experts. They are 
ready for shipping only when they cease to 
need any particular care. 
You will find Johnson's Cacti are the most 
reasonably priced and finest to be found any¬ 
where. You take no chance when ordering 
from us, for our plants are guaranteed.
