Boddington's Beautiful Butterfly Begonias 



"The Butterfly" 



This Begonia is a "sport" 

 from Begonia erecla picta niar- 

 morata and a great improvement 

 upon it. The flowers are larger, 

 and the white motthngs are 

 more profuse, giving to blooms 

 a charming and unique appear- 

 ance. Mixed, all colors, 16 cts. 

 each. $1.50 per doz., $12 per 100. 



Duke Zepplin and 

 Lafayette 



These two double Hybrid 

 Tuberous - rooted Begonias are 

 both of unusual merit, and in 

 color, when grown either as pot- 

 plants or planted in partially 

 shaded positions, are an intense 

 scarlet, rivaling the Sah'ia splcn- 

 deiis and flowering continually 

 the whole summer. Both varie- 

 ties are of the dwarf habit, reach- 

 ing a height of only about lo to 

 12 inches ; very sturtly. They 

 are continuous bloomers, send- 

 ing up their numerous spikes of 

 flowers well above the foliage 

 from June till late fall, when 

 frost overtakes them. 

 Duke Zepplin. Intense pure 

 vermilion-scarlet, is cts. each, 

 Si. 50 per doz., $12 per 100. 

 Lafayette. Rich brilliant crim- 

 son-scarlet. 20 cts. each, $2

W^ofthiana 



This is a dwarf variety of Be- 

 gonia Bertini, excellent and very 

 free-tlowering. which we sent out 

 last year. It is a continuous 

 bloomer, and the brilliant red 

 flowers are borne in great pro- 

 fusion. It will make an excellent, 

 bedding variety, and will also be 

 found very useful for edging, and 

 in time will supersede the Ver- 

 non and other Semperflorens va- 

 rieties. 20 cts. each, $2 per doz., 

 $12 per 100. 



Washington 



This variety is similar to the 

 Lafayette and Duke Zepplin 

 types and was seen by our rep- 

 resentative while in Europe this 

 season. The great advance is in 

 its exceedingly dwarf habit and 

 great profusion of crimson-scar- 

 let blossoms. For bedding pur- 

 poses it is unequaled. 75 cts. 

 each, $7.60 per doz.
