. Begonia, Single, Fringed or 
Frilled (Tuberous Rooted) Abont tnn 
years ago It was noticed lliat Single Tnlieroos 
litgonias were prone to assume frilled forms. A 
noted Continental hybridist closely followed up this 
sport of na'ure, and liy continuously crossing tho 
most fiillcil sjiecimcns ho ultimately sueceeded in 
producing a new class, and can uow show soma 
definite results. This new class of Single liegonius 
is tho most perfect of what us yet exists of tho 
species. The enormrns flowers appear iu all kiuds 
of shapes, some like fringed I'etnnias, others like 
fimbriated Piimulas ; othc^rs again are semi double. 
What, however, lends the real charm to all these- 
forinsaud shapes is the wonderful undulating (wavy > 
formation of each individual flower. They occur 
as yet in almost ns rich a range of colours as existing' 
varieties of singles, ami are particularly adapted for 
pl!iDting-out purposes, in groups as well a* for pot 
culture. During the post season they were nniver' 
sally admired, and both connoitseurs and nmateuvA 
expressed their highest praise. The strain has becii 
awarded many Prizes and Certificates of Merit ab 
several of the large Horticultural Kxhibitions on 
the Contineut. We can supply them iu the loUow'
