Descriptive and illustrated catalogue of Royal Palm Nurseries . descriptiveillus1895roya Year: 1895 MISCELLANEOUS DEPARTMENT. 53 Draccena terminilis. (See page 54.) CRINTJM, continued. C. fimbriatulum. Nassau, or Milk and Wine Lily. A strong grower, not particular as to soil. Flowers in umbels, very large and showy, striped white and carmine, 3 to 4 inches in diameter. Exceedingly choice and desirable. 20 cents each, $ per dozen. C. hybridum Todorae. An Italian hybrid, resem- bling cappedum, but not so large, either in flower or plant. $ each. C. Kirkii. Previously catalogued as sp. 2. The flowers are large, pure white, with a reddish purple stripe on the outside of each petal, which, showing through, gives the flower a pink tinge on the inside; some 10 to 15 of these large flowers are produced at the top of a tall purple spike, and there are frequently two or more spikes of bloom from the bulb during the sea- son. In addition, the foliage is very handsome, the numerous wavy-edged leaves forming a per- fect rosette. This plant has created a sensation wherever seen, and we notice that it is offered by other parties at very high prices. Flowering bulbs, 35 cents each ; large and heavv, 50 cents to $1 each. C. Kunthianum. Vigorous grower and abundant bloomer, from New Grenada. Flowers lighter than scabrum, and the whole plant taller and larger. Very fine. 75 cents each. C. Moorei. South African species, with clear pink flowers. Very fragrant; as with all sorts here offered, it differs from them in an unusual color. Rare. $2 each. <J pedunculatum. St. John's Lily. A splendid species from South Africa, blooming during the holidays, on which account alone it would prove valuable. Flowers white, very large. Bulb becomes very large, and mature plants have a height of 3 to 6 feet. $1 each. C. scabrum. Tropical Africa. Five to 10 flowers in an umbel, of a dull white, tinged with rosy red. L
