PALMS AND CYCADS. 29 OREODOXA REGiA, continued, for avenue planting. Our nurseries were named from some fine trees we had transplanted from the "Royal-Palm Hammock," in the Everglades, where they are found wild. This Palm is valuable in all sizes, but especially when 4 feet or over in height. We have a fine stock of plants in various sizes. 15 to 18 inches high, 25 cts. each ; 18 to 30 inches high, 35 cts. each, $ per doz. ; 3 feet, 50 cts. each, $5 per doz. ; 3% to 4 feet, 75 cts. to $ each.

It is easily grown into grand specimens at an early age, and thrives in the house with but little sun- shine. It is so very hardy and healthy that it can stand a good deal of neglect. Engravings are from photographs of some of our specimens. Pinnate-leaved. P. Canariensis.* The Canary Island Date. One of the finest for open ground planting, as it is very hardy, and attains great size. A fine Palm for avenue planting, as well as single
