It has deep green, feathery foliage, arranged in whorls, rising one above the other, at regular distances ; its symmetry of form, grace and beauty of foliage are unequalled in the vegetable kingdom. It is easily grown in the house and is highly orna- mental. (See cut.) Extra fine plants, 24 to 30 inches high, $ each ; 15 to 18 inches high, £ each. DRAC/ENA. Indivisa (The fountain palm).
