BEGONIA BEDDOMEI (ASSAMICA). 
A neat-growing species, introduced from Assam. It has short fleshy stems, short pale green 
softly hairy leaf-stalks, and oblique ovate olive-green leaves, marbled with silvery blotches above, and 
of a pale purplish pink beneath. The flowers are of a pinkish flesh-colour. 3s. Gd. 
BEGONIA GLOIRE DE SCEAUX. 
A new hybrid winter-flowering bulbous variety, raised between JB. socotrana and B. mbpetala. 
The plant is of compact habit and most proliferous, the flowers being well shaped and of a beautitul 
bright rose colour. The glabrous leaves are cordiform and of a dark metallic green. Flowering as 
this does from the beginning of January to the end of April, it will be found a very desirable acqui- 
sition to our winter-flowering plants. 10s. Gd. 
BEGONIA HYBRIDA COCCINEA. 
A pretty and desirable hybrid variety, belonging to the winter-flowering section. It is of 
dwarf compact habit, bearing in the greatest profusion its boautiful bright scarlet flowers, making

months. 3s. Gd. and 5s.

surface is of a bronzy green with a broad pale green band down the principal costa, and smaUci 
bands of the same along the course of the other main ribs, the whole dotted over with oblong blotones
