Fancy- Leaved Zouats 
Several varieties, Mme. Languth, Skies of 
Italy, Happy Thought, and others, approach 
the leading zonals in numbers grown. Many 
varieties were weak growers when we first 
acquired them but, in most cases, we have 
been able to bring them up to rugged health 
and down to low prices. Some varieties that 
we offered at 25c each a decade ago, we now 
produce at 8c rooted. 
Healthy fancy-leaved are easy to grow. 
Their restricted geen chlorophyl areas nec- 
essitate light feedings more often than the 
all green-leaved varieties. They appreciate a 
sandy soil, for good drainage, and lots of 
light. 
Numbers following variety names corre- 
spond with those in picture.
