Title:
"Date Palms. Larger than those generally found in gardens because they are of such slow growth. Used frequently for decoration,
but not so commonly as the Fan Palm. Sage Palms are also seen; & Yucca Palms. Dragon Palms are occasionally seen, & a few
others are cultivated; but not many although the Encyclopedia says there are over 1000 species in the group of [Palmacaie?].”
