Everblooming Bedding Varieties 



The following are varieties of Begonia Semperflorens, and take rank as bedding 

 plants with Geraniums and Coleus, doing equally well in full sunlight, and sur- 

 passing both in positions partially or wholly in shade. They are of sturdy growth, 

 growing about 1 foot high, and forming dense bushes, which, from May until frost, 

 are completely hidden with flowers. As pot plants for winter flowering they are 

 superb, remaining a sheet of bloom throughout the entire year. Easily raised from 

 seed, which should be started either indoors or in a hotbed.
