BEGONIA TUBER0U5=R00TED.

 frost, and few plants equal them in gorgeous splendor. 

 The double-flowered sorts are better adapted to pot 

 cultivation, and are most decorative piazza and con- 

 servatory plants. They should be started early in heat 

 and liberally watered during hot weather. For ama- 

 teurs use they are particularly desirable, being of easiest 

 cultivation.
