SCOTTII 5 INCH POT BOSTON lENSlS This splendid new Fern has received the Highest Award from the New York Florists* Clob and the American Institute.

Its rapidity of increase is well proven by the fact that in October J900, I had but one plant with four (4) fronds, and at the present time I have three houses each 152 feet long, full. I am certain if you grow N. Scottii you will not meet with the same disappointment that has been met with in some of the varieties of Ncphrolepis that have been intro- duced within the last few years, but you will find it a profitable investment, as this fern will surely appeal to your customers on account of its compact symmetrical and graceful form and its excellent adaptability to dwelling-house culture. The illustrations show a plant each of N. Scottii and N. Bostoniensis. Both were grown in 5-inch pots, and it is easily s^en how much more decorative N- Scottii is over the old Boston fern.
