They are excellent house plants, and succeed well with ordinary care. Plumosus Nanus, better known perhaps as Asparagus Fern—An excellent pot plant. Foliage bright green, very graceful and so deli- cate it has all the appearance of finely woven silk lace. Plants in 2l2 inch pots, each, 15c; $ per dozen. Strong plants in 3 *i inch pots, 25c each: $ per dozen. Sprengerii—A new species, possessing more than ordinary merit, and quite distinct from the old sorts.
