DREKR'S GIANT There are few winter-flowering bulbs more atttractive than the Cyclamen, being an ideal plant either for greenhouse or window decoration. The Giant strain here offered is of robust growth, throwing the large flowers well above the handsome foliage. It is often a hard matter to get dry bulbs started into growth. We therefore send out only nicely started plants, which we feel sure will produce better results. We can furnish any of the following colors in thrifty plants in 4-inch pots. White, Rose, Salmon, Blood=red and White with Carmine Eye. 35 cts. each; $ per doz. Dielytra^ or Dicentra Spectabilis {Bleeding Heart, Seal Flower, or Lyre Flower). An old-fashioned favorite, equally well adapted for forcing as for planting in the open border, its long racemes of graceful heart-shaped pink flowers are always attractive. (Ready in November.) 20 cts. each; $ per doz.; $ per 100.
