tional merit. It has two long, rush-like leaves

an inch across and wide open. The flowers are 
long lasting even when cut. It is a winter bloom-

Fascicularia 
BICOLOR. A rare bromeliad with glaucous, 
yucca-like foliage having small spiny edges. The 
plant is terrestrial and grows equally well in sun 
or half shade, and eventually assumes a semi- 
spherical form of great size. This plant would 
be worth growing even if it did not flower, 
which indeed it does not very often condescend 
to do, but when in bloom the cone of reddish 
flowers in the center and the rosettes of leaves 
around it turned flames color, is a sight to be 
hold. Stock very limited. Delivery anytime.

livery. $2.00 doz.
