SINGLE AND DOUBLE TUBEROUS-ROOTED BEGONIAS. 



Tuberous=Rooted Begonias. 



The Tuberous-Rooted Begonias are among the handsomest of our summer-flowering bulbs. They are not grown to the extent 

 they should be, as they require no more care than Geraniums, have as fine a range of color, and will bloom continuously through- 

 out the summer, even when Geraniums droop through lack of moisture and fail to unfold their flowers. Planted either in the 

 rockery or flower border, they rival the Geraniums with their rich and varied colors, ranging from the most delicate shade of yel- 

 low and salmon to the most striking crimson and scarlet. We have made a specialty of these charming plants for several years, 

 have tried them thoroughly, and have no hesitation in saying they are destined to play a very important part in the bedding of the 

 near future. With us they have bloomed profusely when planted out on rock-work or in the open ground, and have been a 

 decided attraction.
