132 PETER HENDERSON & GCO., NEW YORK.—PLANT DEPARTMENT. 
. . . BOUGAINVILLEA SANDERIANA. . . 
‘“¢We have grown this new Bougainyillea in a greenhouse, where it has 
continued flowering for seven months, small and large plants alike being 
covered with blossoms. Even plants in thumb-pots were laden with 
bloom. The house in which our plants have been cultivated has been a 
sheet of flowers from May until December, and at the time of writing 
(December 30th), the plants are carrying thousands of their brilliant 
blossoms. Many excellent judges state that this will be a favorite 
market plant, as it produces as freely as a Fuchsia its dazzling rosy crim- 
son flowers, lasting so long in perfection, and produced in smallest pots, 
under all conditions, in amazing profusion. Wecan with all confidence 
recommend this grand plant as a great acquisition.”—(Introducer’s 
description.) (See cut.) Price, 50c. each, 5 for $2.00. 
TUBEROUS BEGONIAS._ All Selected Bulbs. 
These are now the most popular plants for beds of summer flowers, or 
as pot plants for the greenhouse, conservatory or sitting-room. Our 
bulbs are all sound, well matured and of good size. For a time it was 
generally supposed that these could not be grown in the open air with 
success, but extensive plantings of them in various sections of the country 
have demonstrated their adaptability for 
this purpose. Nothing can exceed the 
brillianey of their colors, the delicacy of 
their tints, the richness of their waxy 
flowers, the gorgeousness of their effect 
in masses, or their graceful appearance 
in beds or borders. From the time the 
first blossom appears until all growthis 
stopped by frost, they are never out of 
bloom. (See cut below.)
