DIEFEENBACHIAS Handsome decorative plants, with bold ornamental foliage; useful for the warm conservatory. Baumanni. Rich deep green leaves, blotched with irregular markings of light pea-green. flagnifica. Shining sombre green foliage, variegated with white blotches and spots. flemorte Corsi. Leaves silvery white with green veins. Price, 50 cts. each. Set of 3 sorts, $ Dreer's Decorative Dracaenas This plant is better adapted to the greenhouse, or conser- (V-- _r~^~-^. vatory in which the temperature and moisture can be con- t— trolled, than it is to the window garden, where the air is almost always dry and the temperature fluctuating. Such varieties, however, as Fragrans, Mas&angeann, and Indivisa can be grown quite satisfactorily in the living room. The Dracaena should be given a light, fibrous soil, with just enough loam in it to give it a body. Drainage should be good. The water- ing should be liberal and showering frequent. The variegated sorts require plenty of light to bring ou: the richness of their coloring. Amabilis. Foliage bright glossy green, marked and suffused with pink and creamy-white. 50 cts. and $ each. Deremensis Warnecki. Habit of growth and form of foliage similar to D. Knerki, but prettily variegated with white stripes. 50 cts. and $ each. Fragrans. An excellent house plant with broad dark-green foli- age; grows under the most adverse conditions. 25 cts., 50 cts. and $ each. Qodseffiana. Entirely different from all other Dracaenas; of free- branching habit, forming compact, graceful specimens. Its foliage is of strong, leathery texture; rich, dark-green color densely marked with irregular spots of creamy-white, 3-inch pots, 25 cts. each. Imperialis. Robust growing, dark-green foliage, with bright pink shadings and edgings in the young growt
