. Rare Florida flowers and fruits. Nurseries (Horticulture) Florida Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Shrubs Catalogs. RUellia fornjosa. PLUMBAGO CAPENSIS. BUELLIA FORMOSA.

Thrives in any light rich soih and is fine for either pot-culture or bedding out in summer. 15c. each. Ptiellia T^berosa. This is in reality a rare and very desirable novelty sent to us from Europe, and so far as we know has never been offered in this country by others. It is of very bushy dwarf growth and covers itself with beauti- ful Bignonia-like flowers which stand above the foliage and are of the same lovely shade of blue as the Cornflower. Bedded out in summer it will flower from July on till Christmas if potted before frost 20c. each, pfyaptuolepis OVata. (East Indian Hau-thorn.) A grand little evergreen shrub which is perfectly hardy at Washing- ton, D. C. Well worthy a place in the window on account of its very dark green, ovate or almost round, leathery leaves which stand heat, cold, dust and gas with impunity. It is dwarf in habit, not attaining a height of over 4 feet in the open ground and much less in pots, and assumes a beautiful rounded shape. It belongs to the same family as the Hawthorn and produces in profusion terminal panicles of Hawthorn-like flowers, each about three-quarters of an inch across, color varying from pure white to various shades of pink, sweet scented and followed by black berries about the size of peas. Blooms from February to August. Should be in every Southern garden. Fine large plants. 25c.
