This novelty from Japan we take great pleasure in introduc- ing as one of the most satisfactory house Ferns ever offered. One was stalled Inst January, and its beautiful leaves and color at- tracted the attention of all who saw it until August, when it was placed in the cellar to rest. The center is moss covered with Fern roots in a very ingenious manner, looking like a ball of small roots twisted together. After watering, they start into life, and in a short time are covered with a mass of beautiful green foliage. If desired they may be allowed to dry up, which is very convenient when a person goes on a Summer vacation. They may be started again by simply watering as before. When growing they should be watered two or three times each week. If desired they may be cut in halves and placed in a Fern dish. The ball, before it is started, is six to ten inches in diameter. We only handle the "Nagaha" long leaved variety, the com- mon variety only produces short fronds, 75 cents "each. Can only be sent by express. FUCHSIAS Price, 7c each. Any four for 25c. Any nine for 50c. The set of twelve for 60c. FUCHSIA, STORM KING. Double Fuchsia, Storm King.—This grand plant is of the most beautiful habit.

Phenomenal.—The largest Fuchsia that I have ever seen. The tube and sepals are bright coral red, beautifully formed. The corolla is nearly two and a half inches across. Monarch.—This new Fuchsia is by far the largest of
