UNUSUAL 
MINIATURES 
HARDY CYCLAMEN (Cyclamen Neopoli- 
tanum)—A true miniature, with perfect little 
cyclamen blooms in pink and white. One of 
the most outstanding small flowers we've seen 
in some time, with numerous good qualities; 
among them, intriguing tiny cyclamen blooms, 
handsome heart-shaped marbled leaves, and a 
fascinating habit of curling the seed head, as 
soon as the petals drop, down to the ground, 
so that the plants are always neat and tidy. 
They bloom in the fall, when good flowers are 
scarce, the bloom lasting a month or more. 
The leaves appear shortly after bloom begins, 
and persist till spring. Plant the bulbs, which 
are perfectly hardy, round side down, in good 
leaf mold in partial shade. Keep moist at all 
times, preferably by mulching with peat moss. ar yO yrs
