A Climbing Shrub.

This shrub has attracted considerable
attention on account of it's peculiar habit
of growth, it's remarkably beautiful TO-
liage, the diminutive size Of it's flowers,
the delicious fragrance of it's blooms and
the interesting manner in which it fastens
it's branches to whatever it meets.
It's foliage resembles that of the mag
nolia, only considerably smaller. The
upper side is a dark green, and the re-
verse is nut brown.
1t is of unexceptional growth, extend
ing it's long, far-reaching arms beyond
bounds. The one to which reference is
given stands in close proximity to an
orange tree of immense size, and it ex-
tends it's graceful arms from branch to
branch, securely fastening them by sim
ply hooking them on, and then reaching
ures. Farther and farther it reaches,
until at last it may be seen peeping out
from the top OF the orange tree. and still
it continues to climb, as if seeking for
more orange trees 10 conquer.
Its blossoms are truly beautiful, and
then it is so modest, only appearing on
the under side of the branch, as if to hide
away from the gaze of human beings,
and so very diminutive that they would
escape observation entirely were it not
for their delicious perfume. You may Oe

are filled with delight, and wonder from
whence comes this delicious perfume. It's

ates. You are repaid for your search,
for you find the sweet little flowers on
the under side of the branches, and you
are more than ever surprised at their
wealth of fragrance. 1t does not ask any
assistance to help it in place, as it very
Independently fastens itself wherever it
backward instead of forward, and they
are of great assistance in it's wild career.
The shrub is SO very aspiring and ap-
pears to claim the orange tree as its
trelis, that the decree has gone forth:
THAT shrub must be cut down." The
axe is laid at it's root, and it's branches
are laid low, but it's aspirations do not
end here, for it simply puts forth new
growth, and from all appearances in
tends to repeat it's former depredatory

These are far more satisfactory for dec
Grating purposes than Towering ones, as
the latter will not do well in the house,
unless prepared especially for that pur-
pose during the summer months. No
decoration is quite complete without
a couple OF handsome palms, and per-
haps Pandanus Utilis. commonly called
screw pine, or the still handsOmer Pan
danus Veitchii, the leaves of which are
striped, green and white. This is one of
the most valuable plants for house cult
ure, as it wthstands gas, dirt and ill
usage generally better than almost any
other plant.
1t is exceedingly useful in it's native
country, the Mauritius, where it not only
grows wild, but is cultivated for it's
leaves, from which bags and sacks for
the export of sugar are manufactured.
They are generally grown from seed in
this country, but may also be propa-
gated from cuttings.
The DracRna is another genus of val
liable plants. of which there are many
varieties. Some OF them yield a red gum,
called dragons blood. DracHna Brasil
iensis, and Dracana Terminals are the
two most generally cultivated. These
hand some, ornamental-leaved plants are
useful for the decoration OF the table or
for the room.
DracRna Brasiliensis is handsome for
the center of vase or stand, forming a
beautiful object with it's fine broad,
gracefully recurring foliage.
Next take Hedera helix, the hardy ivy.
Friendship has chosen for it's device an
ivy surrounding fallen tree, with the
motto: Nothing can detach me-" This
is a desirable plant for indoor as we'll as

ivy screen. Some are trained fan shape,
others climb along the windows, and
Irvine around pictures.
Another plant (although not strictly
a foliage plant, as it blooms). is most
valuable on account of it's foliage, that
is the Anthericum, generally known as
st. BrunO's lily and st. Bernard's lily. |
The finest of these is A. vittatum varie- |
gatum, a native of the Cape OF Good
Hope, and it is truly ornamental. 1t has
feshy roots, from which spring broad
grass-like leaves, a foot to eighteen inches
in length and about an inch wide. These
are a rich green, margined on each side |
with white stripe. Tall flower stems are
sent up, some two fe ct in height, bearing
small lily-like flowers. After they are
done neutrality-suspicious. even before, |
small plants grow out along the stem,
and a little later, feshy roots prOtrude |
from the base. These young parts, if |
removed and placed in moist sand, will |
soon make Independent plants.
The Farfugium is also highly priced |
on account OF it's large heart-shaped |
leaves, the upper surface OF which are
dark green, blOtched and dotted with
clear yellow.
Then the stately Ficus elastica, or
India rubber tree, which grows to large
size, and is avery satisfactory decorative

situated just across the street from our
Key West home. In the center OF the
lot stands the church, beautiful for Key

of bells, pipe organ, etc. At the right

many of the old fashioned sorts, some
of which carry us back to our childhood

waited the same flowers around our own
