. Rare Florida flowers and fruits. Nurseries (Horticulture) Florida Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Shrubs Catalogs. SPECIALTIES IN PLANTS, SEEDS AND BULBS. 5 Specialties in Plants, Seeds and Bulbs, Japanese Cedar, or Sugi. In this rarely beautiful and unique Japanese evergreen (Cryptomeria Japonica) we have a most dainty and handsome jardiniere plant for general cultivation—a plant as beautiful as and more graceful than the rare and expensive Araucaria Excelsa (for which indeed it is often mistaken), but which has the happy faculty of successfully withstanding the trying atmosphere of living rooms, a quality in which the tender Araucaria is woefully lacking. It is the only plant at present known that is a perfect substitute for the Araucaria in appearance, and which can be grown with perfect success in any living-room. Of a beautiful dark- green color and decidedly novel appearance, it is as decorative as a Palm in any situation, and sure to attract instant attention. Nice plants, 20c. Giant Cigar Plant. (Cuphea Eminem or Micropetala.) The cut does no justice to this beautiful but almost unknown plant. In beauty and appearance its flowers rival those of the Manettia Bicolor, while the plant grows with the freedom of a weed and blooms constantly — spring, summer, fall and winter. Each stem is surmounted by a spike of flowers, varying in number from 6 to 20 or more, the individual flowers from Lto iy2 inches in length and % inch in diameter, in color a rich scar- let, tipped with bright yellow. When cut and placed in water, the spikes remain fresh and blooming for 2 weeks. Equally adapted for pot culture or summer bedding, and sure je to give great satisfaction. Price, 20c.
