STOCK TESTED AND PROVEN FOR YOUR GARDEN! 
Why experiment with stock when Florida Nursery and Landscape Co. offers you items proven 
suitable for Florida climates and soil conditions? Here are a few suggestions: 
Beaucarnea, commonly called Nolina or 
Pony Tail, is a native of Mexico. This un- 
usual and curious plant is very striking as a 
tubbed specimen, in a planting box, or for 
patio use. The odd bulb formation increases 
in size as the plant grows, and in cool 
weather the center rosette of foliage turns an 
attractive deep wine shade. 
This is the “Something different” for 
which you've been looking! 
Priced $1.50 up. 
Illustrated is the Camellia Sasanqua Mine- 
no-yuki, which is commonly called “Snow on 
the Mountain.” The Camellia sasanqua 
comes in other varieties, including single 
and double flowers of pink, red, white, and 
white with colored margins around the edges 
of the petals. 
Sasanquas are priced from $1.50 up. 
We also have a nice stock of Camellia 
japonicas in an attractive range of varieties. 
These are in bloom, and are container grown 
for easy transplanting. Priced from $2.00 up. 
The Neanthe Bella Palm, known botanically 
as Chamaedorea elegans, is a graceful, dwarf 
growing palm prized for pot use, or in plant- 
ers, as well as in protected patios. It is a 
suckering type palm, with the leaves made 
up of broad segments carried on slender 
stems. It seems to stand dry air and heat 
indoors very well, and because it does not 
grow very rapidly, it is one of the most 
valuable palms for indoor use! 
Priced, 50c up. 
Azaleas are by far the best flowering shrub 
for Central Florida—and you'll find Florida 
Nursery has a wide variety available so that 
you may choose the size and color you 
prefer. Tall growing, medium-growers, and 
dwarfs—all ready for you and priced only 
25c¢ and up. 
WATCH FOR IT! 
WAIT FOR IT! 
Accentuate the loveliness of your pot plants 
by putting them in California redwood tubs; 
banded with stainless steel, these tubs are 
sturdy and attractive. Select the size best 
suited for your specimen plants—and see how 
much more prestige your plants add to your 
sunparlor or patio!

Viburnum odoratissimum is evergreen, hardy, 
and wonderful for foundation plantings, 
hedges, etc. The large, glossy dark green 
leaves are accented by fragrant white flowers 
in dense heads in early spring. Viburnum 
makes an attractive background for colorful 
shrubs—offer cold protection too! 
Priced $1.50 up.
