Cyclamens. 



fhe growing of cyclamens is an art. 

 Anybody can grow a few fair, even 

 Ki>od, plants, but it takes a real grower 

 ^" produce fine cyclamens in quantity. 

 '^ was with this thought that a repre- 

 ^'iitative of The Review glanced with 

 KPnuine pleasure over a number of 

 ""uses of beautifully grown cyclamens 

 <'"p afternoon this week. 



It is difficult to put into words the 

 impression created by a well grown 

 batch of these plants. They have a 

 deep, lustrous green look, are short and 

 stocky and wonderfully even when com- 

 pared one with another. The science 

 of cyclamen growing, as explained by 

 an expert, consists firstly in getting good 

 seed of a really choice strain; secondly 

 in never allowing the seedlings to suffer 

 for one moment after they come up — a 

 check in cyclamens, as in many other 

 things, means the difference between 

 poor plants and good. The third and 

 final point of importance is to get the 

 plants in a certain condition when the 

 blooming season is at hand. These three 

 points are what may be called the past- 

 master's guide and must not be con- 

 founded with the rudiments of cyclamen 

 growing, which are too well known to 

 require description, 



I am indebted to Robert A, Craig for 



these ideas and if they are not properly 

 expressed it is not his fault, but mine. 

 The cyclamens that he has grown this 

 season are superb. 



Various Xotes.

 cently were J. Van Lindley, of Pomona,

.1. Otto Thilow, secretary of the 

 Henry A. Dreer Co., says that the dis- 

 plays of hybrid tea roses made in their 

 windows have attracted widespread at- 

 tention, bringing many orders for next 

 season 's delivery. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. promise some 

 extremely fine novelties for the coming 

 season. Increased importations of the 

 French flowers in orchids, carnations, 

 roses, etc., very durable, are noted, A 

 new make of wire scissors promises well, 



Philip Freud has a taking window at 

 Henry F, Michell's this week. It repre- 

 sents a girl on a stepladder tying bags

 insects, Mr, Freud has the paper bags

 safety of their vineyards.
