For the grower of Ferns for cutting this new Maiden Hair will undoubtedly prove a most important addition; it closely resembles Adiantum Farleyense and wall make a splendid substitute for that fancy variety, and it can be produced at much less cost, as it will thrive under conditions in which Adiantum Farlej'ense could not exist. At our Riverview Nursery we have given it a very fair trial for this purpose during the past winter. A block of these plants were planted on a bench in a house devoted to the ordinar}' Boston Fern and received the ordinary treatment and temperature given to the Nephrolepis, and under this treatment they developed not only fronds of great beauty on longer, stiffer stems than Farleyense produces, but also many more fronds than would be developed by that variet}' in the same length of time under the most favorable condition. Anyone who successfully grows the ordinary varieties of Adiantum, such as Cuneatum, Croweanum, and Hybridum, can grow it under preciselv the same conditions given to these sorts. We have a fine block of about 30,000 young plants, 214-inch pots, at $ per
