of a shrubby, compact growth, bloom profusely all through the season, and are very
desirable for bedding, as well as for edging, borders, etc They are moderately hardy,
but should have a covering of leaves or litter, just before Winter begins. : : : : :

SANSEVEBI A ZEYLANICA.
A New Decorative Plant of Great Beauty and
Value.
A beautiful plant, splendidly
adapted for the decoration of
drawing-rooms or halls, as it
stands droiuh and dust with im-
punity, and requires scarcely any
water. The leaves grow to a
length of three or four feet and
are beautifully striped cross-wise,
with broad white variegations on
a dark green ground. A rare and
beautiful plant which should be
abundantly grown for positions
out of thereach ofsunlight, where
other plants will not thrive. When
you consider that it can be placed
in any position in any room and
do well, its great usefulness is at
once apparent. It has a singular
beauty for decorative purposes
which other plants do not possess,
and is useful both Winter and
Summer. Though grown mainly
for the beauty of its foliage, it is
by no means an insignificant flow-
ering plant. It blooms usually
during May and June, sending up
great plume-like spikes a foot or
more in length. The flowers are
numerous and composed of long,
narrow petals, which recurve
gracefully, and are of a creamy-
white color. It is difficult to find
a more unique or ornamental plant
than this, especially when It is in bloom. Fine plants, 8
cents each; large', strong plants, 15 cents each.
STROBILANTHES
DYERIANUS.
Royal Purple.
A new and very beautiful
foliage plant from Singapore,
which will become universal-
ly popular on account of the
brilliant and exquisite color-
ing of the leaves, the beauty of
its flowers and its extraordi-
narily easy growth and use-
fulness as a decorative plant.
It surpasses the finest Coleus
in exquisite coloring of the
leaves, besides which the long
racemes of lovely violet blos-
soms with which the plant is
covered m mid- Winter greatly
enhance its value and beauty.
8 cents each. royal purple.
SANSEVERIA ZEYLANICA.
SWAINSONIA ALBA.
Something New and Valuable. It "Will Bloom
Both Summer and Winter.
A beautiful continuous flowering new plant, with pure white
sweet pea - like flowers,
produced in sprays of
from twelve to twenty
blossoms each. Nothing
surpasses it as a decora-
tive plant for the win-
d o w or conservatory.
The pinnated, feathery,
fern like foliage is a
cheerful light green, and
has always a neat and
clear appearance. It is
of easy culture, growing
in almost any light po-
sition. Its great freedom
of bloom, being seldom
without flowers, the
grace purity and beauty
of its flowers, and the
neat habit and fine ap-
pearance of the whole
plant will undoubtedly
make it one of the most
popular plants in cul-
tivation. Especially
valuable for cutting.
Owing to its ease of cul-
ture and beauty of both
plant and flower, it is
one of the most valuable and desirable home plants that has yet
appeared. 8 cents each.
New Swainsonia, Splendens — Same as the above, with
bright scarlet flowers. This is the only true scarlet variety. 8
cents each.
SALVIAS.
New Dwarf Scarlet Salvia, Le President.— The grandest
addition to our list of bedding plains. It forms a compact bush
completely covered with rich, scarlet flowers. We have had
plants that by actual measurement were only fifteen Inches
high and two feet across. As a border or vase plant it will
be indispensable and as it will bloom abundantly in pots, it will
be of the greatest value as a market plant for florists. 10 cents
each.
Splendens.— The standard sort for bedding. Flower spikes
of the most brilliant scarlet. 5 cents each.
Alba. — A white variety of Splendens Identical in every re-
spect except in color, which is pure white. 5 cents each.
Splendens, Variegata. — White and red flowers. Very
evenly striped. 5 cents each.
New Salvia, Yellow Bird.— Has beautiful yellow foliage,
scarlet flowers. This will become a general favorite for bedding
effects. 10 cents each.
STEPHANOTIS FLORIBUNDA.
This is the well-known vine for house culture that is always
scarce, being difficult of propagation. We have been fortunate
to grow a slock of several thousand fine plants. It is a hard-
wooded vine, with thick, leathery leaves, bearing bunches of
pure white flowers that are deliciously fragrant. Indeed, itis
the most charming of all fragrant flowers. 15 cents each.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.
