THJ$ NEW ZANZIBAR RICINUS. Mixed, four packets lO cents, per packet 3 cents* Among the new and showy semi-tropical foliage plants we have Ricinus Zanzibariensis, pJants which make a robust growth often feet high, with enormous leaves and conspicuous panicles of bloom and fruit. The following varieties can be supplied: - Cinerascens 5 I Niger 6 5 Picturatus ] 5 Maculatus 5 | Variabilis 6 Special mixture of the varieties, four packets 10 cents, one packet ... 3 Mr. Park:—Ricinus Zanzibariensis is a fine foliage plant. Planted singly or in groups the effect is grand. In rich s~il and given good cultivation the plants often attain the height of twelve feet in a single season, and the leaves are sometimes two feet or more across and handsomely lobed. Some of the plants produce light green leaves with whitish ribs, and these form a superb contrast with the dark foliage of the other sorts when the different vswieties are planted together.—Mrs. S.
