CYCLAMEN. ( Sow at any time (spring and autumn preferred) 
" in pots or pans, in peaty loam and sand, covering 
the seeds scarcely a quarter of an inch, place on warm shelf near 
the glass in greenhouse, keeping the soil moist but well drained. 
The seed takes from four to six weeks to germinate. When the 
bulbs are the size of a Pea transplant singly into small pots, 
transferring to larger pots as the plants develop. An average of 
60° is the temperature best suited for producing well-developed 
plants, and good ventilation without draught is a safeguard from 
disease. 
3850 Carters White Swan. — 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

sidered one of the most striking among florists flowers, and

and the beauty of the variegations in colour is captivating to all 
who see them.

shading from the base of each petal, which lights up the whole 
flower and give a brilliant effect.

handsome petals; compact habit, robust growth.

type. The flowers are also very lasting. Choicest mixed.
