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 f 
; 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 April, a continued display is maintained till July.

SUNDRY ANEMONES. 
Anemone Apcnnina , the blue Mountain Windflower, forms a dense cushion of rich blue, and is one of the 
loveliest dwarf Spring flowers and, when associated with Triteleia conspicua, the delicate porcelain flowers 
of the one blend most charmingly with the rich bright blue of the other. A. Dlanda resembles Apcnnina ^ 
but is deeper in colour and flowers a month earlier.

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 arc 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 Vernum and 
Repandum ; these we recommend to be grown on rockwork, and protected with leaves or litter till February or 
March, the foliage then begins to appear, and the flowers come in April. 
All the European Cyclamen are hardy ; they 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 walls 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. Europrcum commences flowering in July ; the Hedera;folium varieties follow in 
Autumn ; and 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 
latest investigations, the genus Cyclamen divides itself into five specific heads or types, thus : Europajum, 
Summer-flowering ; Hederrefolium, Autumn-flowering ; Persicum, Winter-flowering ; Ibericum, of which 
Atkinsi and Coum are varieties, Winter-flowering ; Vernum and Repandum, Spring-flowering. 1 hus, out-of- 
doors, Europaeum flow r ers July and August ; Hederaefolium, August to November ; Ibericum, December, 
January, February, and March ; Vernum and Repandum, April. 
Cyclamen Europaeum, we have these roots collected on the Alps. The flowers are delightfully fragrant, 
and the foliage beautifully variegated ; it is a fine species for rockwork, and to plant at the bottom of old walls 
and to naturalize in the grass, or to plant in wild gardens. Ground roots, 25 s. per 100. 
The varieties of Cyclamen Hedercefolium have beautiful Anccctochilus-like variegated leaves, which are 
decorative during Autumn and Spring, being uninjured by the weather. When gazing in Winter on masses of 
this beautiful foliage, we have felt surprised that not more advantage has been taken of it for Winter beds, and 
intermingling with it for a succession of flowers Scilla bifolia, Scilla sibirica, Chionodoxa lucihae, Leucojum 
vernum, Narcissus nanus, and Snowdrops. In Autumn, from the ample foliage of C. Hederrefolium, rises a pro- 
fusion of beautiful magenta-coloured flowers, and if these in Spring were followed by all or either of the bulbs 
named, a succession and variety so charming would be produced that we must leave the reader to imagine the effect. 
Cyclamen Persicum may be cultivated in a cool greenhouse or a cold frame with a little protection. They 
make vigorous plants in a stove or orchid house. In well- managed establishments, during Winter and Spring, 
«C. Persicum is of necessity one of the principal decorative plants. 
I'Ve keep all the Cyclamen in pots ready to send out, except the roots of Europium ; these at 25J. per 100 
are lifted from the bed as wanted.
