Gia^qt Cycla^roep 



Cyclamens are among the most charming bulbs we have for parlor 

 and greenhouse culture. They are very easily grown, bloom freely, and 

 continue a long time in bloom. The flowers are exceedingly beautiful, and 

 range through many shades of pink, crimson and white. The leaves are 

 finely variegated, so that the whole plant is highly ornamental, and par- 

 ticularly suitable for house and conservatory decoration. They like lots of 

 light and air, but not too much heat. All lowers of beautiful house plants 

 should by all means have some pots of Cyc.amen. When done blooming 

 the bulbs should be dried ofT and allowed to rest like Callas.
