WHOLESALE PRICE LIST.

The strain of Tuberous- Rooted Begonias we offer is too well 

 known to require lengthy description ; suffice it to say that we 

 liave used the same care this as in previous seasons, to select only 

 such strains that are certain to give satisfactory results. The 

 bulbs are of good size, well ripened, and first-class in every 

 respect. 



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 the 

 cheap indiffe7'ent strains now offered dear at any price. We 

 offer but one quality, and that is the best.

Frilled Tuberous-Rooted Segonia. 



A most unique form, with very large single flowers which are 

 entirely distinct from anything heretofore offered, the petals being 

 wavy and beautifully frilled on the edges, similar to the newer 

 forms of Petunias. A decided acquisition. Strong bulbs, 25 

 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen. 



Tuberous-Rooted Begonia, 

 *' Duke Zeppelin/' 



A most useful and attractive variety that should soon become a 

 favorite for bedding, possessing the great advantage over other 

 tuberous-rooted Begonias of delighting in full sunshine. It is of 

 dwarf habit, growing from 6 to 8 inches high, throwing up well 

 above the foliage numberless steins bearing full, double dazzling- 

 scarlet flowers, giving the whole plant a brightness, grace and 

 elegance difficult to describe. Strong bulbs, 20 cents each ;

Begonia uloire de Lorraine. 



We-w Begonias. 



Gloire de Lorraine, Undoubtedly the greatest gem in 

 winter flowering Begonias yet introduced. It grows from 12 to 

 15 inches high, fomiing naturally graceful bushy specimens, 

 which from October to April are completely smothered with soft 

 rosy-pink flowers. It is an especially valuable plant for the 

 holiday season. Plants less than 10 months old having been 

 sold in 6-inch pots in the eastern cities last Christmas at from 

 $5.00 to $10.00 each, 



2-inch pots, $2.00 per doz.; $15.00 per loo. 



Light Pink Lorraine. This is a sport from Gloire de 

 Lorraine with flowers of a lighter and possibly more pleasing 

 shade of pink. The plant is of a decidedly stronger growth, and 

 florists who have handled it last winter claim that it is hardier 

 and holds its flowers better under unfavorable conditions than 

 the original type. 



2-inch pots, $2.00 per doz.; $15.00 per 100. 



Dwarf Lorraine {nana compacta^. This is of more com- 

 pact habit from the type and holds its flowers more erect ; very 

 desirable. 



2-inch pots, $2 00 per doz.; $15 00 per 100^ 



Double Flo\(rering Begonia 

 Semperflorens. 



Valuable additions to the Begonia family, with pretty double 

 flowers. The three varieties here offered are all of strong 

 vigorous habit, and succeed admirably either as pot or bedding 

 plants even when planted out in full sun.

 sionally lightly tinted with pink and light yellow stamens. 

 $1.25 per doz. ; $10.00 per 100.

 carmine and changing to a clear pink as the centre expands. 

 $1.25 per dozen ; $10.00 per lOO.

 buds and flowers when opening a bright scarlet, changing to 

 cherry carmine when fiilly developed. $1.25 per doz. ; $10.00 

 per 100. 



Broiirallia Speciosa Major. 



A giant flowered form of the beautiful blue Browallia, flower- 

 ing continuously summer and winter. May be grown either as a 

 pot or border plant. Its beautiful ultramarine blue color, which is 

 rare in all classes of plants, makes it especially valuable and de- 

 sirable. 75 cts. per doz.; $6.00 per loo.
