selects high quality foliage and flowering plants, orchids, cacti,
succulents, and some rare and unusual speciman plants.The selection
varies each year. Last year there were more than 700 plants. Help

We offer inexpensive, tough, and easy foliage plants to brighten
students' dorm rooms and apartments.
We will also feature a great variety of succulents in all forms:
bromiliads with colorful leaves and flowers; a variety of different
cacti; succelents twisted in fantastic shapes; and fuzzy kalanchoes.
The flowering plants will include several varieties of fragrant
jasmine, both shrub and vining forms; passion flower vines; tropical
hibiscus; begonias; and African violets and their relatives. For
more advanced growers we will have both potted and epiphytic mounted
orchids.
A large variety of tropical ferns will also be for sale, together
with easy instructions on how ferns can prosper in spite of Chicago's
dry radiator heating in the winter.
