We sliow four Flowers wriicrj 





are types of trie grand 



(Tuberous Begonias 



■we offer. These are now the most popular plants . for beds of summer 

 Sowers. For a ti mo 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 brillancy of their colors, the deli- 

 cacy 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 growth is stopped by 

 frost they are never out of bloom, and such blooms, great waxy flowers 

 from three to five inches across, borne in such profusion that the rich 

 glossy green foliage is almost hidden under the wealth of blossoms. A 

 bunch of these on the table in a room will remain perfect a long time and 

 brighten it up as no other flowers will. There are inferior varieties of 

 these grand flowers offered, but those we sell are the. best the world can 

 produce, and were selected by Mr. Henderson personally on his "tour 

 among the celebrated growersof Europe last summer ; henceour customer* 

 may rely on getting the best from us, and be guarded against cheap offers 

 of these which cannot be as good as our carefully selected strain. They should bo planted about one foot apart each way, and on the 

 approach of cold weather they should be taken up and the bulbs stored away in a warm place until the spring, when they may be started 

 in pots before planting in the garden.
