Grow Cyclanen
From Seed for
House Plants
Once Started, Bulbs
VIII Be Plentiful
For Many Years

Plant seed now to have the thrill of
growing your own Christmas and
Easter cyclamen plant-and perhaps
few extra ones for friends.
Here is, however, a little, disap-
pointment-plants raised from this
sowing of seed will not bloom until
next year, because 1t requires from
IL to Is months for the first flower
ing. But once the plants are started,
there will be plenty OF bulbs for
years to come.
Florists, as rule, seldom keep
bulbs for a second season, but there
is no reason why the home gardener
should not save cyclamen bulbs just
as other bulbs. To do this, in May
let the foliage begin to die, lay the
container on its side in the garden
under some shrubbery and give it
just enough water to- prevent the
roots from drying out too much. In
the early fall separate the bulbs,
repot and bring indoors Keep them
in cool place, but in a location
where there will be plenty of light,
and gradually increase the watering.
The cyclamen is most satisfac-
tory house plant, with well-propor-
toned snowy blossoms, single and
double varieties, ranging in color
from the rich, deep tones to the
most delicate tints. It has a longer
Towering period than many other
indoor plants, which is a point in its
favor. It's easy growth is another
factor in its favor.
tt does well in a temperature OF
55 to IS degrees, and prefers moist
soil but does not like water poured
on its leaves. The seed should be
sown about one-eighth OF an inch
deep in friable, light, loamy soil
with little charcoal and hydrated
lime added 1t takes about seven
weeks for termination.
After four or five leaves are we'll
developed, transplant the seedlings
into or 4 inch pots, and repot as
needed into larger containers. Keep
the plants growing vigorously. with
no let up whatever, and see that
they do not become pot-bound. 1t
is, however, well for the roots to be
crowded as the blossoming stage
approaches, because this condition
aids in better and earlier Towering.
In the late spring after Towering
has finished, If you do not want to
bother with drying out and dividing
the bulbs. the plant should be given
rest by plunging it, pot and all,
down into the soil near some shrub
berry until about September. Then
1t should be repotted, if necessary,
and brought indoors for winter
Towering.
In the last transplanting, place the
plant so that its crown will be ele-
waited and well aerated-this pre-
vents rot to a certain extent. And
the soil should also be made richer
than it was for the plant when it
was younger. Use rotted turf mixed
with well-rotted cow manure, and
add to this little commercial fer
tilizer which contains ammonia,
phosphoric acid and potash.
If the leaves become too long and
somewhat ungainly, 1t may be due
to too much shade or too much
nitrogen.
Sometimes the cyclamen is pes
tered with aphids, red spider, thrips,
or cyclamen mite. The red spider
will not bother If the atmosphere is
kept moist by atomizing once or
twice a day. A.

bearded group, such as Coronation,
Monsignor and Desert Dawn, are IN
dispensable, as they prolong the
blooming season almost to the ar
rival of Kaempferi, the spectacular
japanese iris whose bizarre beauty
carries the iris season into July.
Their magnificent blossoms come In
wonderful blues and purples and IN
strange and lovely blends with
white. They love the sun, but must
have plenty of moisture at their
roots, especially during their bloom
ing, to produce the enormous now
ers characteristic Of Kaempfert at
It's best.
And now, when one might think
that the conspicuous contribution OF
the iris family had run its course,
there comes iris dichotoma to bloom
in August. 1t is comparatively new
to this country and is best known
as the Vesper iris, opening always
Ger stems, 30 to 36 inches in height,
there rises great profusion of
exotic bloom Like most of its rela-
tives, it requires sunshine and good
drainage.
This mere. outline of iris prodigal-
ity could be amplified by long list
Of species and hybrids spaced
through the iris season, and long
after the end of that season a be-
lated and rare visitor, iris stylosa,
will bloom in the cold frame or
very. very protected nook in Deem
ber. 1t is native to Algeria and
Asia Minor and seems to require
frost and cold to form its buds and
open its lovely blue blossoms.
If your taste is better satisfied
with the tawny tones-oranges,
apricots, yellows-there is the whole
range of these colors in the day
lilies (hemerocallis) and, thanks to
the work of hybridizers, you may
have day lilies in bloom from early
May through September, from the
early dwarf forms that so beauti-
fully complement such pure blue
iris as Blue Sierre and Aline,
through the deep and light tones,
tall and medium, day and evening
bloomers.
Among all the thrills of garden
Ing there is very special one in
discovering that Calypso, a night
bloomer, has opened some Of its
soft, yellow blossoms, or when you
come upon Hyperion in bloom, its
flowers like great pale, golden moons,
or on some fall day you find splash
OF gold that is Golden Dream.
Day lilies will stand gracefully
around a pool, blooming in partial
shade, or bloom luxuriantly on a
dry, sunny bank. They are free of
disease. They attract no pests and
they ask only yearly feeding of
bone meal to produce their beautiful
harvest OF flowers. They seem the
one and only answer to the garden-
er's prayer for a foolproof, unde-
manding plant that gives a 100 per
cent return on per cent invest
ment of time, labor and material.

Better Chance for
Plants if Potted
Properly First

Each household, however small,
has few favorite plants to help
brighten the rooms during the win
ter months. They will have much
better chance OF living through the
indoor season If they are prop
erly potted at first, or repotted If
they have grown too large for their
present container.
The soil for the pots should be
light. should contain plenty of sand
and humus and moderate amount
OF fertilizer, and it should be we'll
sifted and be moist but not wet when
the potting is being done. To test,
squeeze hand full; if water comes
out 1t is too wet, and if it quickly
falls apart when the hand is opened
1t Is too dry. 1t is just damp enough
when it retains its shape when
squeezed, first cracking slightly
when the hand is opened.
Cover the drainage hole of each
pot with pieces of broken pottery,
and cover these with a layer of moss
or some other fiber to prevent the
soil washing through with watering.
An older plant must be repotted
as soon as it has used up all the
plant food and filled all the grow
ing place with its roots. Unless it is
removed to larger pot, its growth
becomes retarded and stunted, and
it will die. Prepare the larger pot
as above, then knock the plant from
the old pot by placing one hand
palm down on the top of the pot
with the stem OF the plant between
the first and second fingers. Turn
the plant upside down and rap the
pot on any wooden edge. This will
cause the ball of soil surrounding
the plant roots to slide out in one
hand, leaving the empty pot in the
other. The soil must be just moist
during this process.
Break Oft the surface soil down
to the roots, and place the plant In
the next size larger pot in the pre-
pared soil. Firm the earth well
around the roots, leaving space at
the top Of the pot to hold water.

Trillium Bulbs
Grow Well in
Shady Places
VIII Take Place of
Imported Plants
Becoming Rare
Bv A. C.. Mclean

BY A. e.. Mclean
Now that imported bulbs are be-
coming scarce, more attention is
being paid to native bulbous plants,
including trilliums which are de-
serving of all the attention Ameri-
can gardeners may give it. Our ma
tive Trillium grandiflorum, or
snow trillium, is one of the glories
of late May or early June and can
be naturalized in shady places
where the ground is well drained.
September is good time to order
and plant such native bulbs as
trilliums. Although snow trillium
Is the species most commonly
offered in catalogues, there are a
number of others which are also
good subjects. Trillium undulatum,
or painted trillium, has pink and
white flowers almost as large as
those of snow trillium. T. sessile
and T. ovatum are among the Cali
fornia species which are also very
handsome. In fact, all trilliums are
worth while for naturalizing in shady
places. Their blooms are very snowy
and they have rather handsome
foliage, although this dries of dur
ing midsummer.
Trilliums do we'll where the
ground is we'll drained and we'll
supplied with organic matter.
Although they will grow fairly salts
factorily under a tree, they do
much better If they do not have to
compete with tree roots for food
and water.
Several other native plants can
also be used with the trilliuRs if
the soil contains plenty of humus.
Among them are several species of
Cypripedium, or lady slipper, or
perhaps other terrestrial orchids,
such as the snowy orchids and ha-
benaria. Bloodroot, Dutchman's
breeches and many others also
make good companions for the
trilliums.

Wall viii Protect Gardens
And Prouide More Priuucv

For the sake of obtaining privacy
in a small suburban yard and to
protect the garden from damage
done by animals it is sometimes
desirable to inclose the property
with a wall. Where there is a diff
ficult grading problem a retaining
wall is often necessary. Whether
OF stone or concrete some form of
planting will eliminate the bare,
ugly look of the wall and give
beauty to the view. If the yard is
very small the wall garden may
furnish the only flowers for which
there is room. If the lot is large
there may be place for both flower
and vegetable gardens, as well as
an outdoor living room. In this
case the wall garden will serve as
q background for other paintings.
A plain concrete wall can only
be covered with climbing vines or
partly hidden by planting ever
green's or shrubs In front Of It. A

Late Blooming Iris
Is Important for
ColOrful Display

Oriental irises are one of the last
members of the iris family to bloom
but they are not the least in i'm
portance. Indeed, there are few
flowers OF any kind that make q
more gorgeous display. These may
be set out in early August.
II planted near a stream or pond
they should have the crowns of the
plants set on little mound of sand
high enough so that the water will
drain away from them. When used
in the garden border, no special
attention is required except keep
ing them well supplied with water
by means of hose. They dislike
wet feet as much as any other
plant.

Old Collections
ToBe Augmented
By New Tulip
Pearl Harbor,' With
Large Blossoms.
Good for Cutting
By Agnes TrimbIe

By a gneS IrfmbIe
Here is good news for tulip en-
thusiasts! A very new tulip, Pearl
Harbor, will make its debut in the
spring. OF course, the bulbs must
be put in the ground this fall, and
very soon, too, so that an extensive
root system will develop before cold
weather sets in.
From all reports this lovely new
tulip creation, to be known as Pearl
Harbor. should add greatly to the
old tulip bed. 1t is sport Of the
Picotee and has been developed to
a degree where most of the flowers
can be counted upon to be double
but now and then a single one may
burst open. This will, however. add
to the interest and attractiveness
Of the double blossoms to have in
terspersed here and there a large
single bloom Of the same type and
coloring.
This new tulip is of the cottage
type, with large, snowy blossoms
and long, sturdy stems-will be ex-
cellent for cutting. 1t will be fasci-
mating to watch the pearl-white
buds as they open and spread their
well-designed petals changing to a
glorious rosy tint with the shading
gradually becoming more intense
near the tips, each with deeply
veined streaks Of dark rose-red.
All bulbs should be planted in
we'll prepared soil which has been
dug down to depth of IL to 18
inches and thoroughly pulverized.
In this section tulip bulbs should
be put into the ground in October.
The depth of planting them de-
pends much upon the type Of soil
in which they are to grow. In av-
erage garden soil set them down
about 6 inches; In heavier soil, not
quite so deep. while in light, sandy
loan they will probably need to be
planted even deeper.
Now that tulip bulbs are scarce
and prices high it will be well to
plant the ones we have so as to
increase them as much as possible.
One plan for this is to throw away
all moldy and diseased bulbs from
those that have been drying out
from last season. Then separate the
clumps and plant the small bulbs
in rows, like peas. and the larger
and finer ones planted for Towering
purposes.
1t has been found that tulips
growing In acid soil are greatly
benefited by a small application of
lime.
