Giant Persian Cyclamen. 
These are among our most beautiful and interesting winter 
and spring-flowering bulbs for the window and greenhouse. 
Not only are the flowers of striking beauty, but the foliage 
is also highly ornamental, consequently they are very deco- 
trative even when not in bloom. There are no plants better 
adapted for pot culture, and few that produce such a profu- 
sion of bloom; the flowers range through many shades of 
pink, crimson, white, etc., some being beautifully spotted. 
Most of them are moreover, delicately fragrant. Our bulbs 
are from the most famous Cyclamen grower in Europe and 
will produce flowers of rare merit. 
The flowers of this magnificent giant strain are of extra- 
ordinary size for a Cyclamen, and of great substance. The 
leaves are proportionately large and beautifully marked. 
We offer three separate colors, viz.: 
Rose Color, White or Crimson, at 20c. each, $2.00 per 
doz., or one bulb each of the three for 50c. 
Mixed Colors, Giant Persian Cyclamen, 15c. each, $1.50 
per doz.

and then brought into a gentle heat, it may be had in flower in the greenhouse in February and 
March. Large flowering roots, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz. 
Henderson’s Superior Freesias. 
Freesias are most popular and charming bulbs for pot culture, 
flowering in the winter and spring in the conservatory, or window 
garden; 6 or 8 bulbs should be planted in a 4-inch pot. They force 
readily and can be had in bloom by Christmas if desired, and by 
having a dozen or more pots started in the cold frame they can be 
brought in at intervals, thereby keeping up a continuous display 
of bloom through the winter; the flowers are produced 6 to 8 ona 
stem about 9 inches high, and are particularly useful for cutting, 
‘remaining in good condition kept in water for two weeks: (See cut.)
