ANEMONE FULGENS (the Beautiful Scarlet Windflower of the Riviera). 
Anemone fulgens is the most brilliant and graceful of all Winter and Spring-flowering Anemones. The 
rich dazzling scarlet flowers, and light elegant growth, render it the most attractive scarlet flower of Spring. It 
is invaluable for table bouquets or vases, as it lasts a long time in water. If the roots are planted early in 
Autumn, flowers, weather permitting, may be gathered from Christmas ; its hardiness is beyond all question, so 
that roots may be safely planted any month from August to May. The plantings made April and May s/wuld 
be in a situation where in summer the ground is moist, and the sun's rays do not fall on them after 10 or 11 a.m.

VARIOUS BEAUTIFUL ANEMONES. 
Anemone apennina, the blue Mountain Windflower, forms a dense cushion of rich blue, and is one of the 
loveliest dwarf Spring flowers. A. blanda resembles A. apennina, but flowers a month earlier. The varieties 
of Anemone nemorosa literally carpet the ground with their charming flowers. A. nemorosa Robinsoniana is 
remarkably beautiful, and Anemone nemorosa bracteata may be called “the jack in the Green " of Anemones, 
the white petals resting on a profusion of green bracts. A. pulsatilla flowers spring and autumn All the above- 
named species are charming on rock work. A. rivularis is a very ornamental spring-flowering variety. As pot- 
plants these Anemones are very charming. A. japonica , white, rose and red, are the most decorative of 
Autumn-flowering herbaceous plants. Mr. William Robinson in his paper at the Conference on Hardy Flowers 
described the fine effect of Anemone apennina when planted in meadows or near to large elm trees (the flowers 
and foliage passing away before haymaking time); Mr. Robinson also recommends that Anemone Japonica be 
planted in rough places outside the garden.

CYCLAMEN. 
GREENHOUSE CYCLAMEN (C. perslcum). 
From November to March, Cyclamen perslcum is brought in large quantities to Covent Garden Market, 
many of the specimens having upwards of two hundred flowers. It is an indispensable plant for 
indoor decoration, and few flowers are more highly prized for button-hole bouquets, ladies dresses, and finger- 
glasses. It may be cultivated in a cool greenhouse, or cold frame, with a little winter protection ; but it is in a 
temperature of 45 0 to 6o° the Covent Garden growers produce their fine plants, and these are mostly from seed 
sown in November, and not allowed to go to rest till they have flowered the following winter.
