Hardy yclamen 
Rare and Beautiful 
For more than a decade Mr. Kline has been the principal grower 
for this business and during that time not only has he specialized in 
the finest lilies but year by year he has been developing a stock of 
these wonderful hardy Cyclamens. We have offered them in a small 
way in the past but now with the availability of more species, we 
plan to make a real specialty of them. 
As their delightful beauty is more appreciated, more and more 
good gardeners will learn of their value not alone for their rarity 
but for their genuine effectiveness in the shady garden. By plant- 
ing a few plants each of the different species, one may have them 
in flower early in the year until Thanksgiving. In mild areas there 
is some bloom almost every month in the year. 
Once considered tender, recent years have found them being 
planted as far north as mid New York. During the very unusual 
cold in this area in the winter of ‘49, the plants in the open fields 
withstood down below zero for a considerable period without any 
covering. Where such cold is expected, they should be covered 
with evergreen boughs as an airy protection. 
These hardy Cyclamen have proven very long lived under condi- 
tions to their liking. There are records of individual plants fifty 
years old in England. They are always grown from seed, in fact they 
self-sow freely so that one may develop very attractive colonies in a 
short while from just a few planis. 
With every order we send full planting and cultural directions 
prepared by Mr. Kline. We advise planting in clumps of three or 
aS more whenever possible. The corms can be shipped most any time
