The Ghilds' Boston Feri» This remarkable new Boston Fern, now offered for the first time, originated in our greenhouse, being a sport from Mascosa. The fronds are short, narrow and rigid, held mostly erect in dense masses which makes a most peculiar and attractive plant. Each plant becomes a tuft of very dark and very light green foliage, the young fronds being light in color at first, but deepening to a rich dark green as they mature. It is exceedingly robust and will stand lots of abuse and look well all the time. Very distinct. Fine plants, 50c. each; 5 for § Sanguinea, Injpatieijs Sanguina—A dwarf, compact, low branching plant, show- ing at all times, summer or winter, a profusion of large blood crimson blossoms. Much more hardy and easily grown than other lmpatiens, succeeding anywhere as a window, veranda or bedding plant. 25c. each; 3 for 60c. Oliveri—A large growing lmpatiens, with immense blos- soms, that look like an orchid in shape, and color, a delicate lavender tinted light pink. Good as a window plant, but better for the greenhouse where it can have room to develop to its full capacity. 30c.
