. Bulbs and plants : autumn 1899. Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Seeds Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs. is CURRIE BROS., MILWAUKEE, WIS. Winter Flowering and Ornamental Plants. THE plants we offer here are those especially adapted for the decoration of the parlor or conser- vatory during the winter or spring months, and we are careful to send out none hut those in good health and first-class condition. All plants are carefully packed according to the season of the year, to insure their safe delivery to any part of the country. AGAPANTHUS—Blue African Lily. A. Umbellatus—An old favorite, useful alike in the greenhouse and parlor, no collection of plants being considered complete without it. It also makes a striking object on the lawn. The foliage is long, strap-shaped and dark green. The flowers are bell-shaped and arranged in large umbels on the summits of st'ff, stout stems 3 to 4 feet long. Color a handsome pale blue. Price, each, 50c to $ ASPARAGUS. A very pretty and graceful fernlike climbing plant, rivaling in beauty even the delicate Maiden- hair Fern. Few plants are more ornamental and none more usef til. Plumosus Nanus—Foliage bright green, very graceful, and so delicate it has all the appearance of finely woven silk lace, yet when cut the fronds retain their form, subetance and color for weeks. An indisDensable plant for all decorative pur- poses. Price, each, 25c. Tenuissimus—Similar to the above, although not quite so attractive, but is an excellent pot plant; may be kept dwarf and bushy, and is easily grown. Price, each, 25c. Sprengerii—Few plants are more desirable as a pot plant or for hanging baskets in the house, thriving as it does in a dry atmosphere, and in almost any position. The fronds are of rich green shade, and frequently grow four feet in leDgth, and when cut retain their freshness for several weeks. Price, each, 25c. ASPARAGUS SPRENGEKII. ARAUCARIA EXCELSA.
