. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. IQIO. The American Florist. 167. CALADIUMS IN LATH SHED IN FLORIDA. Michel Buchner (Bl.) Entirely glossy deep golden red. A medium grower. Vesta (Bl.) Center salmon red, greenish white ribs and veins, spotted white. Adamastor (L.) One of the richest and most magnificent of all caladiums. Ground color a deep transparent glow- ing red, with violet and golden reflec- tions, narrow green border. C. E. Dahle (L.) Large and very beautiful leaves, center white suffused with pink, this color encroaching into the pea green border, a few large rosy violet spots. Very distinct. Hortulania (L.) A wonderfully beautiful variety. Ground color a deep rich transparent rose, deeper red ribs, the entire leaf delicately veined white. One of Mr. Lietze's triumphs. Unfor- tunately weak in growth. Imperatriz Thereza (L.) One of the most distinct and showy of all cala- diums. Ground area pure transparent white suffused with pink, ribs and veins deep blackish-green. Itacoatiara () Ground-color a fine lilac veined green, ribs blackish-brown, border green. Very distinct. Itaequi (L.) Blackish red ribs bor- dered white, interspaces and border green with many pink spots. Leaf stalks jet black. Itauna (L.) Creamy yellow, with many large deep red spots. J. Dehmlow (L.) Deep red center, with broad yellowish white border. Beautiful. Rio Claro (L.) Beautiful transparent rosy red center, carmine ribs, green border—the latter densely covered with white pearl-like spots. Very popular. Rio de Janeiro (L.) This has been pronounced by specialists as the most exquisite and gorgeous variety ever raised. Its dazzling and varied color- ation baffles description. Ground color a deep transparent rose with deep red ribs and veins; everywhere along green border rose-colored white-edged spots. Many leaves are entirely deep rose, others are mottled green and deep rose. Indescribably grand in masses. Fascination (Jaeuicke.) Center
