BEGONIAS. 
If by Parcel Post add postage at zone rates ; weight 7 lb. Per 100. Dozens mailed free. 
The tuberous-rooted Begonia has become a plant of such importance, owing to the rapid improvement it has undergone, that no garden or 
greenhouse can be considered complete without it. 6 
Tubers may be started into growth from January onwards, but the sudden plunging into a very hot temperature is not conducive to a good 
strong plant, therefore they should be put into a medium temperature. Place them in boxes filled with leaf-mould, and as soon as the tubers are 
started pot into small pots in a mixture of equal parts of leaf-soil and loam, with the addition of a little silver sand. When the roots reach the 
sides of these pots they should be re-potted into a larger size, using a little heavier compost than before. After a few weeks again repot them 
this tune into their flowering pots, using a compost of about two parts rich loam, one part leaf-mould, with a little sand or broken mortar rubble 
to keep the whole porous, and some broken charcoal and dried cow manure. Pot moderately firm, and place in a cool house, keeping it close for 
a few days until root action commences, afterwards giving ample air, and damping floors and stagings on warm days until flowering commences 
Carters Veg Vita is a splendid stimulant during the growing period.

Begonia, and of particular value where the rather formal character

price enables them to be extensively used for bedding.
