JAMES BACKHOUSE & SON.

YORK

CATALOGUE OF FERNS.

.Tames Backhouse and Son have pleasure in offering to their friends a much larger and richer collection of Ferns than they have ever been able to do hitherto. The rapidly increasing popularity of this extremely interest- ing class of plants, combined with the large amount of personal pleasure tney derive from the cultivation of them, has induced them greatly to enlarge their stock. Many species noiv offered are quite new and of great leant!,. Some of the most distinct and interesting are specially named and briefly described in the first portion of tliis Catalogue.

•T. 13. and Son also wish particularly to call attention to tlieir col- lection of Tree-Ferns; of which they possess about twenty-five species , esides several which are sub-arborescent.” It is with the belief that no class of plants will better reward the care of cultivators, that they recommend them to general attention. Of free and easy growth, many of these noble ferns rapidly produce crests of fronds, which rival and even exceed in beauty the palm trees of the tropics. What can be more magnificent than an arborescent Dicksonia, Cyathea, or Alsophila, with a trunk seven to ten or twenty feet high, and a crest of graceful fronds twenty or even ten feet across ? Or what more interesting than to watch Inc developcinent of these fronds as they unfold ?

- : peeies of Tree-Fern thrive well in a cool shetiy ,g.m»

rtificial heat, except for protection from frost

heat is given in winter, these succeed admte - ,y, tne shade of the vines appearing to be thoroughly congenial.

ana Son Believe that the time is rapidly approaching, when this tnUe 01 erns’ now scarcely known to many, even by report, will receive tie attention which is justly their due; and that a new and very striking mature of interest will be added to a large number of the Ferneries° Conservatories, and Greenhouses throughout the country.

(For special List of Tree-Ferns see page b.)
