CYCLAMEN, PERSIAN. 
Greenhouse or window garden varieties. 
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 of pink, crimson, white, etc., 
some being beautifully spotted. Most of them 
are moreover delicately fragrant. (See cut.)

tions and do very nicely when grown in pots
