A handsome plant for decoration or fern cases, vases, etc. 50 cents to $ DEAOHNA, or DSAGOIT TEEE. One of the most desirable of our ornamental foliage plants for decoration, either in or out- doors, as it does not appear to suffer under the dry atmosphere of rooms; and, in a partially shady situation stands remark- ably well during the summer out of doors. Its bright colored crim.'^on and scarlet shaded foli- age renders it very useful for the window-garden, planted as a centre-piece in a rustic stand, jardiniere, or window-box, or for summer decoration in vases, or- namental beds, etc. It thrives best in a light rich soil, composed of leaf mould, sand, loam, and thor- oughly decomposed manure. The color of the foliage is improved by mixing small bits of charcoal with the soil, and using the same also for drainage.
