bright sun. Quite an interesting plant.

Hot Dog Cactus 
Candle Plant 
Kleinia articulata 
Native of Africa 
An odd looking plant which loses its 
leaves when kept dry. It gets its com- 
mon name from its blunt thick stems. 
Light green with a blue tinge, the leaves 
are light green and are handsomely 
shaped. A section of this plant can be 
stripped of its roots and leaves and left 
in the sun for weeks and when replanted 
will start to grow again. This is a real 
oddity. 15¢ 

Cereus poco 
A variety that is similar in growth to 
cereus pasacana but has dense brown 
spines along each rib. The ribs are close 
together therefore this plant appears to 
be entirely covered with spines. The 
name “poco” may not be correct but we 
have been unable to find it under any 
other. It is a vigorous grower and really 
deserves a place in any nice collection.

Bryophyllum Aliciae 
Native of Madagascar 
It has soft hairy leaves and is a handsome 
plant when well grown and in flower. At 
different times we have had large speci- 
men plants in bloom at our flower show 
exhibits that were truly outstanding. 20¢
