SUMMER-FLOWERING BULBS AND ROOTS. 
BEGONIA S—tuberous Rooted. 
A charming class of Begonias, of great value for 
planting out-doors in the herbaceous border or shady 
nook in the lawn. No plants are easier grown. The 
tubers planted out-doors in May will bloom in July, 
and continue to produce an abundance of large, brilli- 
ant colored flowers until frost cuts them down; or 
they may be planted in the house in March or April 
and transplanted to the open ground as soon as the 
weather permits, and have them in bloom in June. 
They also make handsome pot plants for the house. 
The flowers are large and exceedingly showy, many 
of them measuring more than four inches across. 
Begonias are mailed free at dozen rates, and shipped 
by express at 100 and 1000 rates at purchaser’s ex- 
pense.
