It has lovely Dracsena-like foliage and is as ornamental as a fine Palm, growing in time to great size and sending up flower stems ten feet high with hundreds of Tuberose-like blossoms. A most beautiful pot plant. 25c. each; 3 for 60c. A plant little known and hardly in cultivation in this country, but one of great beauty and usefulness. The leaves have a highly aromatic fragrance, which is very fine, es- pecially for scenting clothes or working into bouquets or vases of flowers. The seeds are also highly aromatic, and when taken in the mouth have a pleasant taste and add a delicious fragrance to the breath. For this puroose they are often sold at high prices. The foliage of the plant is in itself highly ornamental, to say nothing of its fragrance, but â when in bloom it is indeed charming. Flowers white, borne In spikes and closely resembling Orchids. 15c. each; 3 for 30c. H.
