SINGLE TUBEROUS-ROOTED BEGONIA 



Tuberous-Rooted Begonias. 



Through careful selection, every season sees an advance in the 

 quality of these beautiful Begonias. Our stock is grown for us 

 by one of the most eminent specialist in Belgium, whose strain 

 is celebrated for its size, rich coloring, form and substance. 



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, will find many of the cheap strains now offered dear at 

 any price. We offer but one quality, and that is the best.

New Hybrid Tuberous Begonias. 



Duke Zeppelin and Lafayette. 



These two gorgeous Begonias are of strong vigorous growth, 

 but dwarf in habit, never exceeding 8 to 10 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 brightness and which is not equalled 

 by any other flower.

 each ; $1.50 per dozen ; $12.00 per 100. 



Lafayette. Brilliant crimson scarlet. Strong bulbs, 25 cents 

 each ; $2.00 per dozen ; $15.00 per 100. 



Frilled Tuberous-Rooted Begonias. 



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 

 in a choice mixture of colors. 25 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen.

Grand New Variegated Foliage 

 Plant. 



Bougainvillea Glabra William K, Harris. 



One of the most interesting and at the same time most beauti- 

 ful and useful variegated foliage flowering plants yet introduced. 

 The ordinary green leaved Bougainvillea Glabra Sanderiana is 

 well known as one of the most decorative flowering plants in 

 cultivation, and is extensively grown for use at Easter, in this 

 new variety, which is a sport of the green leaved form, the 

 foliage is beautifully variegated, or rather marbled, with creamy 

 white on a dark green ground. These markings are very 

 decided and the proportion of the two colors is almost equally 

 divided. 



Not only will the plant prove valuable for decorative purposes 

 in or out of bloom, but it will also prove very useful for out-door 

 bedding, for use in window and porch boxes, for the bordering 

 of ornamental foliage beds such as Crotons, etc. , or as an indi- 

 vidual specimen on the lawn. It succeeds equally well in full 

 sun or in partial shade. 



We are now booking orders for delivery early in 1907 at the 

 following prices : 



3-inch pots, 50 cts. each ; $6.00 per doz.; $45.00 per 100. 

 4-inch pots, 75 cts. each ; $9.00 per doz.; $70.00 per 100. 

 Specimen plants at $2.50, $5.00 and $7.50 each.
