INSECTS ON CYCLAMENS. 



What is the cause of cyclamen leaves 

 curling up? There is no aphis on them 

 and they are carefully watered, also 

 sprayed with Nico-fume tAvice a week. 

 The young leaves curl uj) completely. 



T. J.— Cal. 



This looks like a case of tlirips or 

 some other insect attacking the tender 

 young leaves and so crippling them in 

 that stage that they cannot develop 

 properly. An insect of the mite family 

 has been quite destructive in some 

 greenhouses of California where cyc- 

 lamens are grown year after year. The 

 utmost cleanliness at the start and dur- 

 ing the whole life of the plant is an 

 absolute necessity in the culture of cyc- 

 lamens under glass. One might go 

 even further and say that all ragweed 

 ,and other trash growing around the 

 houses or lots should be ruthlessly de- 

 stroyed, for thrips and other harmful 

 insects always swarm in them when 

 green and enter the greenhouses when 

 the weeds are drying up, about mid- 

 summer or before. Careful watering in 

 the young stages is too often neglected, 

 the man with the hose treating all alike 

 daily, instead of watching the weather 

 and the condition of the plants. Eoots 

 constantly wet cannot jirojjcrly perform 

 their functions and in consequence the 

 leaves do not develop properlv. the cup- 

 like formation furnishing a hiding-place 

 and shelter for insects which are al- 

 ways present in the dry atmosphere out- 

 doors. S» R« K.
