SOWING CYCLAMEN.
The present is a good time to sow cyclamen seeds. Make up a compost of equal parts of loam (not too heavy) and leaf mould with a -little eand. Use pans or strong boxes about three inches deep and drain well. After making the soil moderately firm and level make holes about half an inch deep for the seeds. The holes should be made an inch apart each way, because by this method it will be unnecessary to disturb the seedlings till they have three or four leaves. By that time the little corm will be of some size.
