CACTUS PETE 

Sedum morganianum—“Donkey’s Tail’’ 
SANSEVERIA 
This group is highly recommended as 
house plants, this being the family of the 
well-known “Good Luck Plant” or ‘“Mother- 
in-law’s Tongue” which is used so success- 
fully everywhere as an indoor plant, seen in 
restaurants, theater lobbies, etc. All varieties 
have lovely mottled leaves. Flowers are 
white and fragrant. We list some of the rarer 
varieties which you will find grow equally as 
well as their more common relatives. 
1. Aeothiopica—a dwarf with twisty leaves 
edged with red—S0c per plant. 
2. Cylindrica—large tubular leaves, sugges- 
tive of animal horns—75c small plants, 
extra select plants at $1.00 
3. Cylindrica Variety—a tiny duplicate of 
the normal Cylindrica; very rare—$1.00 
per plant. 
4. Hahnii—a hybrid developed for its com- 
pact form, a fine rosette—50c per plant, 
extra select plants at $1.00. 

5. Parva—narrow leaves in am erect rosette, 
shiny green—50c per plant. 
6. Spicata—similar to Parva in form but 
grey-green with red edge on leaves— 
$1.00 per plant. 
SEDUM morganianum 
Although this is not a true epiphyte, we 
list it here as we have found it very popular 
with our customers. This is the so-called 
“Donkey’s Tail’? and its lovely, pendent, 
silver-green stems are a great favorite as a 
house plant—plants 25c. 
SCHLUMBERGERA 
Bridgesii—‘‘Easter Cactus;” flowers blood- 
red—35¢ 
ZYGOCACTUS 
1. Mm. Fournier—salmon—35c 
2. Salmonium—“New Year’s Cactus’’—sal- 
mon—35c 
3. Truncatus—although we do not believe 
this to be the true Truncatus, we follow 
other nurseries in listing this here. This 
is the true, old-fashioned ‘Christmas 
Cactus.” We believe it to be either a 
hybrid or it may prove to be Z. Russeli- 
ana as it seems very like plants which we 
have imported under that name—25c, 
fine grafted plants $1.50 
4, Truncatus Rushii—“Thanksgiving Cac- 
tus,” cerise with a white throat. We have 
had this plant for many years, originally 
a German import. This plant fills the old 
descriptions of the true Truncatus better 
than any other we know. This is the first 
of the Zygos to bloom—s0c
