Swainsonia Galeg-ifolia Rosea—One of the best plant introductions of recent years. It is identical with Galegifolia Alba except in color, which is rich, rosy red. 15c. SANSEVERIA ZEALANJCA. There is no decora- tive plant that is more attractive in habit and foliage than this, and none that will stand as much abuse and neg- lect. It will grow and flourish in any dark corner and will stand gas and dust or heat. Indeed, the only thing that seems to check it is too much water or frost. The leaves grow to a length of 3 to 4 feet, and are beautifully striped crosswise with broad white variegations on a dark green ground. Grows splendidly out of doors in summer. 15c; 2 for 25c. THYRSACANTHUS RUTILANS. FOUNTAIN PLANT. A greenhouse plant of easy growth, and when in bloom a graceful specimen for table decoration. Its tubular shaped carmine flowers are borne on long, drooping thread- like branches, 12 to 16 inches in length.
