Tuberous Begonias — continued. 
Clibrans’ Medli- Single Begonias. 
Aie characterised by a dwarf sturdy habit; full-grown plants are seldom 12 in. in height. 
They bear large brilliantly-coloured flowers on stiff upright stems, so that the flowers are all open 
to the eye, without the aid of sticks and tying. The improvement has been so marked that we have 
discarded almost the whole of our single-named kinds, the seedlings being of better habit, freer in 
blooming, more brilliant in colour, and larger in size.
