ANEMONE FULGENS (SCARLET WINDFLOWER). 
This 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 valuable for 
table bouquets or vases, as it lasts a long time in water. If the roots are planted early, flowers may be gathered 
from Christmas and, by successional plantings, from August to May, a continued display is maintained till late 
in autumn. The plantings made for summer and autumn-flowering must be in a situation where in summer the 
ground is mont, and m shade, from after 10 or 11 a.m. (Figured in The Garden, 1877.) per KO per doz.

SUNDRY ANEMONES. 
Anemone apennina, the blue Mountain Windflower, forms a dense cushion of rich blue, and is one of the 
loveliest dwarf Spring flowers, which, when associated with Triteleia conspicua, the delicate porcelain flowers 
of the one blend most charmingly with the rich bright blue of the other. A. blanda resembles A. apennina. 
but is deeper in colour and flowers a month earlier. The varieties of Anemone nemorosa are most charming 
and no flower border should be without its clumps of these, as they literally carpet the ground with their small neat 
flowers. A. nemorosa Robinsomana is a remarkable plant, and Anemone nemorosa bracteata may be called “the 
jack in the Green of Anemones, tiie white flowers resting on a profusion of green bracts. As pot plants 
these Anemones are very charming. The Snowdrop Windflower, Anemone sylvestris is the counterpart of 
Anemone japonica alba, but flowers in spring and summer. A. japonica, white, rose and red, are the most 
decorative of Autumn-flowering herbaceous plants. *

CYCLAMEN. 
Cyclamen persicum, during the Winter months, is brought to Covent Garden Market in large quantities 
many of the specimens having upwards of two hundred flowers, and realizing very high prices. This Cyclamen 
is an indispensable plant for indoor decoration, and few flowers are more highly prized for button-hole bouquets 
ladies dresses, and finger-glasses. In Ireland, and a few favoured places in England, such as Cornwall and the 
Islands adjacent, it is hardy, and flowers out of doors. It is, however, preferable in all cases to plant out 
only the European species, which are quite hardy, and uninjured by the severest frost, excepting Vcrnum and 
Repandum, the Italian species ; these we recommend to be grown on sheltered rockwork, and protected with 
leaves or litter till February or March, when the foliage begins to appear, the flowers coming out in April. 
All the European Cyclamen require perfect drainage, and should be sheltered from the cutting winds 
of March and April, and the hot rays of the Summer sun ; planted at the bottom of old wails and on 
rockwork, they are very beautiful ; or nestling in the grass, near the roots and under the shelter of old trees, 
the effect is most charming. Europoeum commences flowering in July ; the Hedenefolium varieties follow in 
Autumn; Atkinsi, Ibericum, and Coum are Winter-flowering; Repandum and Vernum close the Cyclamen 
season in April. These hardy Cyclamen are beautiful pot plants when skilfully cultivated. According to the 
“test investigations, the genus Cyclamen divides itself into five specific heads or types, thus Europteum 
Summer-flowering ; Hederaefolium, Autumn-flowering ; Persicum, Winter-flowering ; Ibericum, of which 
Atkinsi and Coum are varieties, Winter-flowering ; Vernum and Repandum, Spring-flowering. Thus, out-of- 
doors, Europoeum flowers July and August ; Hederaefolium, August to November ; Ibericum, December, 
January, February, and March ; Vernum and Repandum, April.
