The Gloxinias are known as among the choicest and most 
beautiful flowering plants we have for Winter and Spring 
bloom in living room, conservatory or greenhouse. ‘lhey 
grow easily from the bulbs, and bloom finely for several 
months; each bulb will make a large plant and produce many 
splendid flowers three to fourinches across, and of the most 
gorgeous and exquisite colors; some are spotted and mottled, 
others beautifully variegated, and all indescribably rich and 
velvety. They are recognized by all as entirely out of the 
usual, and among the most rare and handsome house plants to 
be had. When done blooming, the bulbs should be dried off 
and laid away till time te plant again. We offer three colors: 
scarlet, blue and white.
