Cyclamen Persicum or Persian Violet 
Beautiful Colors and Attractive Foliage 
Cyclamen seeds are slow to germinate but make beauti¬ 
ful pot plants for winter and spring blooming, producing 
handsome bright colored flowers, with beautiful variegated 
foliage, in different shades of green. The seed should be 
sown in spring and by autumn will produce a bulb which 
will blossom the following spring. The Cyclamen is with¬ 
out question the most beautiful of all pot plants, giving 
the richest profusion of elegant flowers and the foliage 
being variegated with different shades of green helps to 
show off the richly-colored flowers. Pkt. 15c.
