A very graceful species, with small, narrow and sharply serrated pinnae. Very rare. Plants 5 to 6 feet high, $io each. sotoolifera. Ma- lacca. An elegant, slender -stemmed species ; leaves bi- pinnate, light shin- ing green. Speci- mens 4 feet high, $ each. C. ureiis. India. (Fish-tail-Palm). The largest-growing of the species, and one of the most orna- mental. The sap of this species is largely used in mak- ing a kind of wine or toddy; hence it is known as the Wine Palm. I n cultiva- tion, it is called the Fish-Tail-Palm, from the resem- blance of the pinna? to the tail of a fish. A very elegant species for house culture, and one that we can highly recommend. Fine plants, 10 to 12 inches, 20 cts. each ; iS to 20 inches, 50 cts. ; 3-feet specimens, $ each ; very heavy specimens, 6 feet high, $5 each. CHAMjEROPS. C. excelsa* ( Trachy carpus excetsus). A quick-growing and very desirable Palm from China and Japan. Very hardy, standing heavy frosts without injury. The leaves are palmate, deeply divided, and of a dark, rich green. Small plants, from 3-inch pots, 15 cts. each ; second size, 10 to 12 inches, 35 cts. each. C. humilis.* Southern Europe and Northern Africa. A very hardy dwarf Fan Palm, and one that can be highly recommended either for house culture at the North or for open ground in the South. Through Southern France, =vid especially in the gardens of the Riviera, the three or four species of true Chamaerops have been extensively cultivated, and these, by cross fertilization, have produced numerous hybrids, all of which are very handsome. We have the following in stock : Argentea- tomentosa, Cochinensis, Conduplicaia, Elegans, Ela- tior, Gracilis, Viva and Robitsta. All of these seem to be equally har
