About this book
Fruitland Nurseries’ spring 1895 catalogue is a sales guide to ornamental plants for garden beds and glasshouses, for customers choosing varieties and quantities. Its Caladium entry describes leaves ranging from red and rose to almost transparent white, then notes prices and when young plants can be supplied. For ferns, the advice turns practical, recommending shade and well-drained soil while warning against excess water in winter.
