THE FRESNO NURSERY CO. 38 BEAUTIFUL PALMS Latania Borbonica. Leaves large, fan- shaped, of a very cheerful green color; plant of hardy construction, and adapted to ail decorative purposes within doors. Appreciated by all the plant-loving com- Phoenix Canariensis. Phoenix Canariensis. (The Canary Island Date.) The handsomest and hardiest spe- cies of the date palm family. Being a rapid grower, it soon develops into beauti- ful specimens, with pinnate, dark green leaves, from 6 to 21 feet long, the divi- sions linear, lance-shaped, very much pointed. It is fully as hardy as the native Fan Palm and differing so widely from that variety in its habit of growth, color, and style of foliage, a finer contrast can- not readily be imagined when the two are planted, either opposite or alternately in rows. Phoenix dactylifera. (Fruiting Date Palm.) Trunk slender, leaves decidedly upright and of a silvery green. Washingtonia robusta. A distinct type; leaves drooping, must greener than pre- ceding and with fewer white filaments. Petioles more heavily spined. Much more rapid grower than W. filifera; trunk much more slender than that variety. Washingtonia sonorae. One of the most dis- tinct. Very similar to W. robusta, but more dwarf. Leaf-stalks much shorter, more heavily armed. AGAVE, ETC. Agave Americana. (Century Plant.) The well-known "Century Plant;" glaucous green leaves. Dracena Australis. Very fine; stout branched stem; flag-like leaves, 2 to 3 feet long. Yucca aloifolia quadricolor. Beautifully va- riegated, marked with narrow yellow and green stripes. Washingtonia filifera. (See California Fan Palms ) Native to Southern California.
