Anemone Pavonina, Stellata or Hortensis (the Peacock ok Starry Wind Flower). 
The Single Peacock or Star Anemone is remarkable for its brilliant colours and elegant flowers. The selec- 
tion we have made represents the two characteristic features of this species, viz., self-colour, and with a conspicuous 
white centre. They flower very early, and may be used for pot culture. The foliage is very graceful. Ihe 
double Anemone Pavonina, No. 1307, is remarkable for its fiery-scarlet feathery petals.

ANEMONE SPECIES. 
Under this heading are ranged Spring, Summer, and Autumn flowering Anemones. A. Apennina is one of 
the most lovely of early Spring flowers ; its rich blue blossoms and elegant foliage are. unsurpassed. Intermingled 
with the delicate porcelain-shaded white flowers of Triteleia, the effect is charming. A. fulgens is the most 
dazzling scarlet flower of Spring. A. japonica clegans, rubra , and alba., amongst herbaceous plants, are unsur- 
passed for their profusion of beautiful flowers and ample foliage ; the flowers continue till destroyed by frost.

CYCLAMEN. 
In a finger-glass, a bouquet, or a button-hole, no flower elicits so much marked attention and admiration as 
the Cyclamen. Many of the varieties are as remarkable for the beautiful variegation of their foliage as for the 
charming neatness, chasteness, beauty, and grace of their flowers. They all succeed in a sitting-room or cool S re ^ n " 
house. The varieties of Atkinsi, Coum, Hederaffolium, Repandum, Vernum, and Europaeum, are perfectly hardy, 
simply requiring a little shelter from the cutting winds of Spring and the hot sunshine of Summer. If planted in 
the open border, remove the soil and replace it with rubble to the depth of eighteen inches, on this place an men 
or two of good soil. So planted and left to establish themselves they will grow freely, yielding abundance of 
flowers. Planted on rockwork they are ornamental in the highest degree. When cultivated in pots, the drainage 
should be well looked to, and the only protection necessary is when in bloom for the preservation of the flowers. 
The Cyclamen we have named, for many years have been flowering in our Experimental Grounds under an old 
Elm tree without any protection, also in pots in a cold frame, the lights simply being put on in winter to preserve 
the flowers. Hederaefolium and its varieties, Africanum, Europoeum, and Macrophyllum flov^r m Autumn ; 
Atkinsi, Coum, Ibericum, and Vernum of Sweet, flower in Winter and Spring. Repandum, which Mr. Atkins 
considers the true Vernum, has beautiful foliage, and flowers in April. . 
Cyclamen Europaeum we import from the Alps. It is a delightfully fragrant species, and we strongly 
recommend its culture on rockwork, at the bottom of old walls and in wild gardens 25*. per 100. 
Cyclamen Hederaefolium and its variety Graecum have beautiful Anoectochilus-like variegated foliage, which is 
decorative throughout the Autumn and Spring months, and is uninjured by the most unfavourable weather. Utten 
in the dead of Winter have we gazed upon masses of these, and felt surprised that they have not been adopted 
as Winter bedding plants, for if associated with Scilla bifolia, Scilla sibirica, and Snowdrops, the effect would 
be perfect. In Autumn, from amidst the foliage, rises a profusion of magenta-coloured flowers, which, followed 
by the Scillas and Snowdrops yield a succession and variety of flowers so charming that we must leave the ettect 
to the imagination of our readers. , 
Cyclamen Persicum and its varieties are greenhouse plants, but succeed at a very low temperature, such as 
a cool greenhouse or even a cold frame with a little protection. They also thrive and .make vigorous plants in 
a stove or orchid house, and in London they form one of the principal decorative plants in Winter and bpring. 
K3T All Cyclamen are sent out established in pots , except the roots of Europium, which we sell at 25 j. per 100.
