MOSQUITO PLANT (Vincetoxum or Cruel 
Plant). There are but two species known 
in America. A hardy plant that will grow 
anywhere. Derived its name from the fact 
that when an insect seeks its sweet fluid 
it becomes a prisoner. Of course it is not 
an insect eradicator. Very odd and a 
study for the plant lover. Ult. H. 1 ft. 
The small, star-shaped, white flowers ap¬ 
pear in clusters of four or five at the 
terminal of each leaf. The leaves are 
small and a shiny emerald green of heavy 
texture. Very graceful and an artistic cut 
flower for unique effect. Botanist Bassett, 
who died 20 years ago at the age of 9 0, 
brought this plant into cultivation. Its 
origin is obscure. The plant has no bad 
habits and remains in one place without 
transplanting. Propagation by dividing.

tion we have a nice stock to offer. 2 large
