SUMMER BLOOMING BULBS AND ROOTS. 
BEGONIAS. 
(Tuberous Rooted). 
The value of these brilliant Bego- 
nias for outdoor planting cannot be 
over-estimated. They make a gorgeous 
display in the herbaceous border and 
they are especially desirable for shady 
places or corners in the lawn, requiring 
no care or attention. 
For early flowering a few bulbs 
should be started into growth in the 
house and transplanted as soon as the 
weather permits. The dry tubers may, 
however, be planted outdoors in May 
and be in bloom in July and continue 
to produce their large, handsqme flow- 
ers in great profusion throughout the 
entire season until cut down by frost. 
We offer these Begonias in six dif- 
ferent colors. Many of the flowers 
measure fully six inches across.
