HENRY A. DREER, 714 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, Pa, 
Tuberous-Rooted Begonias. 
The strain of Tuberous-Rooted Begonias we offer is too well 
known to require lengthy description ; suffice ‘it to say that we 
have used the same care this as in previous seasons. The bulbs 
are of good size, well ripened, and first-class in every respect, 
and are certain to give satisfactory results. 
The price is as low as is consistent with good quality ; the 
retail florist who is growing a few hundred bulbs for his spring 
trade, to sell over the counter in bloom, will find many of ¢/e 
cheap indifferent strains now offered dear at any price. We 
offer but one quality, and that is the best.

NEW 
FRILLED BEGONTAS 
Frilled Tuberous-Rooted Begonia. 
A most unique form, with very large single flowers which are 
entirely distinct, the petals being wavy and beautifully frilled on 
the edges similar to the newer forms of Petunias. Strong bulbs, 
25 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen. 
New Hybrid Tuberous-Rooted 
Begonias. 
Duke Zeppelin and Lafayette. 
During the past summer a bed, 8 feet wide by 100 feet long, 
in a semi-shaded position in our nursery, planted with these two 
varieties, was the brightest and most attractive border on our 
grounds and a revelation to all visitors. Both varieties are of 
strong vigorous growth, but dwarf in habit, never exceeding 8 
to Io inches in height and throw up numberless stems of full 
double flowers from early in July until cut down by frost. A 
continuous display of color which is simply dazzling in bright- 
ness and which is not equalled in any other flower. 
Duke Zeppelin. Pure rich scarlet. Strong bulbs, 15 cents 
each; $1.50 per dozen; $12.00 per I0o. 
Lafayette. Brilliant crimson scarlet.

The Lorraine Begonias. 
Gloire de Lorraine and Light Pink Lorraine. 
These beautiful Begonias are undoubtedly the best Winter 
Flowering Pot Plants we possess, especially so for the 
Holiday Season. The demand again this year has been far 
in excess of the supplies, but we are now prepared to book orders 
for July delivery at $2.00 per dozen; $15.00 per 
100; or $140.00 per 1000 in thrifty young plants which 
will start off in a vigorous growth at once and which can readily 
be grown into 6 or 7-inch pots for next winter’s use. 
There is absolutely no difficulty in growing this plant between 
June and February; no special skill is required and no special 
facilities need be prepared. You will have no difficulty whatever 
if you secure good thrifty young stock such as we are prepared to 
supply in July, and you will find same a paying investment.
