Ella V. Baines’ Superior Collection of Tuberous Begonias 
FOR THESE BEGONIAS IN COLOR SEE SECOND PAGE OF COVER 
Tuberous Begonias are grand for either in or outdoor culture. The soil should be one part leaf mould, or the turfy soil 
scraped from the bottom of old sod. Add one part good garden loam and one part sand. Mix well together. Where planted 
singly, give each tuber a five-inch pot, three tubers in a seven-inch pot is better. Out of doors give them a partially shaded 
position. They do well on the north side of a house. Water very cautiously until active growth starts, then gradually in- 
crease the amount. No plant will give more bloom.
