BEGONIA— Tuberous Rooted Varieties. 
These are among the handsom- 
est of our summer flowering bulbs. 
They commence blooming early 
in sumer, and continue until cut 
down by frost. They rival geran- 
iums in brilliancy and diversity 
of color. They should be dug in 
the fall, and, when thoroughly 
dried, packed in dry sand or char- 
coal dust, and stored in a dry room 
until March or April, when they 
may be started again. We have 
them in separate coloi’s; scarlet, 
crimson, yellow, pink and white. 
Dry bulbs, 10 cts. each, $1 per 
doz. Started in pots, 15 cts. each, 
$1.50 per doz. 
Double Varieties Mixed... 
20 cts each; $2 per doz.; start- 
ed in pots, 25 cts. each; $2.50 
per doz.
