transferring to larger pots as the plants develop. An average of 
60 deg. is the temperature best suited for producing well- 
developed flowers, and good ventilation without draught is 
a safeguard from disease. We also supply dry bulbs.

3850 Carters White Swan.— The largest, also the most profuse 
blooming white Cyclamen in cultivation. A grand thing, 
throwing its pure white flowers well above the foliage. A year- 
old plant of this in full bloom is a magnificent sight. First 
Class Certificate, R.li.S. ( See Photograph, opposite.) 
Per pkt., 1/-. 1/6, and 2/6

Society. ( See Photograph opposite.) Per pkt., 1/-. 1/6, and 2,6 
3844 Carters Butterfly. — This charming Cyclamen may be con- 
sidered one of the most striking among florists’ flowers. The 
somewhat formal bearing of the older varieties is replaced bv a 
more graceful habit, and the colours are surprisingly varied and 
beautiful. It may be observed that the petals of the flowers are 
broad across the top. and the edges finely curled or waved. The 
beauty of the variegations in colour is captivating. (See Photo- 
graph opposite.) Per pkt., 1/-. 1/6, and 2/6

shading from the base of each petal, which lights up the whole

obtained a certificate from the Royal Horticultural Society.

Mrs. Buckston. — Award of Merit, R.TI.S. — This novelty 
bears beautifully frilled petals of a real salmon shade of colour, 
somewhat more delicate than the Carters Siilrnon. The flowers 
are very large and freely produced. This is a valuable addition 
to the crested petalled Cyclamen, and will at once take its place 
in the front rank. Crop failed.

conspicuously when mingled with a collection of the ordinary 
type. The flowers are also very lasting. Choicest mixed.

crimson. Ter pkt., 1/-. 1/6, and 2/6 
3862 Crimson St. Georgre. — A grand acquisition, having the 
niagnificient decorative foliage of St. George, 
with vivid crimson flowers, which are produced 
in abundance well above the foliage. The effect 
is very telling, and the combination of flowers 
and foliage will make this variety pre-eminently a favourite for 
table decoration, &c. Award of Merit R.li.S. Per pkt., 2/6 
3S63 Queen Mary.— This grand new variety is a great advance, the 
charming salmon tint of the floweis is further enhanced by a
