Dreer's Extra Choice 

 Tuberous-Rooted 



Begonias 



The Tuberous Rooted Begonias which we are now 

 offering are, of course, all American grown, produced 

 for us by a specialist in this particular line. During 

 the past summer when they were at their best, we 

 had the opportunity of looking these over, and were 

 delighted to see the advances made in their production 

 as well as with the superior quality of the various 

 types, and we assure our customers that they can 

 depend on receiving stock at least equal if not actu- 

 ally superior to what we have supplied in the past. 



The tubers Ave send out are from 1^4 to 2 inches in 

 diameter, the best size for all commercial purposes, 

 be this for growing in pots or for outdoor bedding. 



Frilled Tuberous-Rooted Begonias 



If you have only been growing the ordinary plain- 

 edged Begonias, you will be delighted if you will give 

 this wonderfully improved strain a trial. The flowers 

 are not only of giant size, but the petals are beauti- 

 fully frilled and waved, not unlike the finest frilled 

 or ruffled Petunias.

Crested Tuberous Rooted Begonias 



A novel and most interesting type, with large sub- 

 stantial flowers on which each petal carries a cocks- 

 comb-like crest which extends from the base of the 

 petal to near its edge where it terminates in a series 

 of charming undulations. Unique and beautiful.

Frilled Tuberous Begonia 



California Grown Boxwoods 



These are an exceptionally fine lot of nicely-trained 

 plants. This variety is known as Japonica and is 

 unquestionably the hardiest of all the Boxwoods. 

 This stock has been frequently root-pruned so that 

 the ball of soil is well matted with working roots 

 which will insure successful transplanting.
