GIANT FLOWERING 
PERSIAN CYCLAMEN 
(Cyclamen Giganteum) 
These Giant Cyclamens are among the most charming 
flowers we have for the parlor or conservatory and almost 
unequalled in beauty. The bulbs are easily grown and as 
each one throws up several flower stalks which continue 
to bloom several months, they make elegant pots of flow- 
ers for Winter and Spring. The flowers are exceedingly 
beautiful and range in color through many shades of 
pink, crimson and white; the leaves are also finely varie- 
gated, making a splendid plant for the living room, win- 
dow or conservatory; they like plenty of light and air, 
but not too much heat. When done blooming the bulbs 
should be dried off and allowed to rest like Calla -Lilies 
till time to pot up again.

colors mixed, 15c. each; 3 for 40c.; $1.50 per doz,
