A New Species, and the Grandest Foliage and Flowering Plant yet Introduced. leaves three times as- large as any other Caladiutn, having a heavy, leathery texture and a .t>right, lustrous, glossy-green color, which is remarkably handsome.

The leaf-stalks are strong and tall, holding the .■mammoth leaves well above ground, leaves 3to 5 feet long by 2or 2/£ feet broad; perfectly im[anense, and make a plant which for tropical luxuriance has no equal. Added to this wonderful (foliage effect are the mammoth lily-like blossoms 12 to IS inches long by 7 inches wide; snow•\rhite, Changing to cream, with a rich and exquisite fragrance so powerful as to perfume a whole Warden, filling the air with fragrance for a long distance. Plants bloom perpetually all summer (an the garden, or all the year rouad in pots. Not only is it the grandest garden or lawn plant, but :as a pot plant for large windows, verandas, halls or conservatories, It rivals the choicest Palms in foliage, to say nothing of its magnificent flowers. Thrives iv any soil or situation, and grows and blooms all the year. As many as 6 to 12 flowers rise successively from the base of each Uaf-stoclc Regardless of all we can say in its praise, the plant will astonish everyone with its magnificence — so novel and so wonderfully effective, free-growing and fragrant.
