The Kentias, both Belmoreana and Forsteriana, are the hardiest in cultiva- tion, and give better satisfaction as a house plant than any other varieties. They are of slow growth, and are not affected by the dust and dry atmos- phere of the house, and were we to select one Palm only, it certainly would be a Kentia. The two varieties are of similar appearance, the former being Areca Lutescens. dwarfer and more spreading, and the latter is of stronger growth with broader, heavier foliage. We also offer below and on next page several of the rarer varieties of this beautiful genus. ]VTO collection of plants is complete without Palms. Their bold, *â ' majestic, yet graceful foliage lends a grandeur and magnificence that cannot be obtained by any other class of plants, and no decora- tion, whether in the conservatory, hall or sitting-room, is complete without them. Nearly all the varieties offered are of the easiest cul- ture, succeeding under the most ordinary conditions. Our facilities for producing this class of stock is the most complete in this country, 35 of our largest housesâover three acres of greenhouse structureâbeing devoted to them alone, enabling us to supply all the leading and popu- ar sorts at the most reasonable prices.
