SINGLE AND DOUBLE TUBEROUS-ROOTED BEGONIAS. 
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 with this as in the previous seasons, to select only such 
varieties as are adapted to our climate and certain to give satisfactory 
results. The bulbs are of good size, well ripened and first-class in 
every respect. 
Note the reduction in prices, which are 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 indifferent strains now offered dear at any price. We 
offer but one quality, and that is the best.

Begonia Haageana. 
We consider this the finest ornamental flowering Begonia 
yet introduced and is a perfect gem. It is of German origin 
and was introduced some two years since, but by some 
strange coincidence it originated about the same time as a 
seedling in a private establishment near Germantown, Phil- 
adelphia, from where we secured our stock, intending to 
disseminate it under the name of Excelsior; but after com- 
parison, finding it to be identical with Haageana, we retain 
the name under which it has originally been introduced. 
It is of strong, erect habit, producing naturally very 
symmetrical plants, which are in flower the year round ; the 
flowers, which are of the largest size, are of a creamy white 
with just sufficient pink to give them a bright, cheerful 
glow ; the foliage is of a large size, but not coarse ; is of a 
bronzy green above and red below ; it makes an admirable 
pot plant and at the same time is an excellent variety for 
out-door bedding. 
2k inch pots, 20 cts. each ; $2.00 per doz. 
Carex Japonica Variegata. 
An exquisitely graceful new Japanese grass with slender 
green foliage edged with white. It is extremely easy to 
grow and makes a most excellent plant for house culture as 
well as for the garden, where it is said to be quite hardy. 
2 in. pots, $1.00 per doz.; $8.00 per 100.
