PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.-BULBS.

CYCLHMEN, 



These are among the 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 decorative, 

 even when not in bloom. There are no plants better adapted for pot culture, and 

 few that produce such a profusion of bloom ; the flowers range through many 

 shades, pink, crimson, white, etc., some being beautifully spotted. Most of them 

 are, moreover, delicately fragrant. (See cut.) Dry bulbs.

Giant Dog's Tooth Violet. 



A beautiful large - flowering 

 variety, perfectly hardy ; the 

 foliage is charmingly variegated, 

 and a mass of 15 or 20 plants is 

 a pretty sight, even when not in 

 flower, but when the graceful 

 flowers are in bloom the effect 

 is matchless. The plants lux- 

 uriate in rather moist, partially 

 shady positions, and do very 

 nicely when grown in pots in 

 frames and Drought into the 

 conservatory or window garden 

 for winter blooming. This 

 variety bears from 6 to 12 yel- 

 low or cream-colored flowers on 

 stems 12 to 18 inches high.
