MeecCLAMEN—AFRICAN VIOLET—AURACARIA 

ar GlAMEN 
CULTURE—The seedling plants we are offering should be placed in nothing smaller than 
a 4" pot. Use a good rich soil containing leaf mold and manure. Bottom of pot should be 
well drained with plenty of gravel. If grown outdoors, do not place pots in a windy site 
nor give more sun than morning. They should have a cool window in the house. As the 
plants grow, they should be shifted as needed. DO NOT ALLOW PLANTS TO BECOME 
POT BOUND UNTIL AT LEAST A 6” POT IS USED. Soil should be kept moist at all 
times. When blooming has ceased, remove from pots, shake off some old soil, trim roots 
back a bit and place in smaller pot. Water just enough so bulb will not shrivel. When there 
are signs of new growth, shift along as before. Cyclamen WILL NOT stand complete 
drying out. If planted in the ground, soil should be the same as for pots, also water the 
the same. In colder climates, those who have a greenhouse will find these plants do beautt- 
fully if placed as a border along the walk or in the bench. 
SEEDLINGS—$.50 each or $5.00 per dozen. 
Will bloom next fall and winter. 
Separate colors or mixture—white, rose, bright red, dark red and orchid.

AURACARIA or NORFOLK ISLAND PINE 
These extremely handsome plants are ideal for the house and will take a great deal of abuse. 
A perfect pattern is made by each new set of branches as they emerge from the central 
stem, placed in a circle and all growing at the same rate. For those who have never seen 
one, it is difficult to describe; however, no one has ever expressed an adverse opinion of 
them here at the nursery. They may be kept indoors for years if not shifted along too fast. 
Many people use them as a living Christmas tree, year after year. In milder climates they 
may be planted outdoors. An exquisite plant. 6” pot sizes $7.50. 7” pot size $10.00.
