SUMMER BLOOMING BULBS AND ROOTS 



Uouole Tuberous Begonia. 



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 a 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, handsome 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.
