Dreer*s Extra Choice 

 Tuberous- Rooted 



fonias 



The Tuberous Rooted Begonias ■which we are now 

 offering' are, of course, all American g-rown, produced 

 for us by a specialist in this particular line. During" 

 the past five summers when they were a,t their best, 

 we had the opportunity of looking these over, and 

 were delighted to see the advances made in their pro- 

 duction 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 

 actually superior to what we have supplied in the 

 past. 



The tubers we send out are from 1% 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 gro-'.\'ing the ordinary plain- 

 edged Begonias, you will be delighted if you will give 

 this wonderfullj- 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.
