A FINE BEGONIA FOR BEDS OR POTS 
Christmas Cheer is a very desirable pot plant for winter-blooming, and 
one of the easiest to grow. The plants, started from seeds in the Spring, 
become globes of charming crimson-scarlet flowers, often two inches across, 
produced in elegant clusters. The plants do well in beds in summer, as well 
as in pots in winter. Directions for sowing these and other small seeds go 
1 with every package. Packets of 500 seeds 5cents. 
Dear Mr. Park: Begonia Christmas Cheer came up in hundreds. I couldn’t save all the plants, but succeeded 
pretty well. A mouse ate his supper off of my little Primula Obeonica, so I must try them again. Mrs. C. O. Marlin, Wayne Co. O. 
Dear Mr. Park: Seeds which I got from you this Spring have germinated nearlv 100%. Plants are strong 
and rugged and I could not ask for any better. W. H. Crandall, Washington Co., E. I., April 14, 1933i 
Beautiful Flowers and Delicious Fruits 
Why not grow both on the 
same vine? You can do it by 
sowing seeds (15 seeds Sets) of 
Passiflora Edulis. There is no 
more beautiful flower than 
Passiflora Edulis, shown in the 
illustration, and the large egg- 
shaped purple fruits, showy 
and pretty as a flower are deli¬ 
cious as a dessert. The foliage 
is also charming, and no vine 
will excite more admiration 
or praise, as well as curiosity 
and interest. Add it to your 
order. Seeds large and plants of 
easy culture. Following extract 
is from the English Garden: 
It is hard to give a reason for the 
neglect of this vine for its fruit, as it 
bears enormous crops of most luscious 
fruits, a valuable addition to the dessert. 
Its culture is of the simplest, it requires 
but little care. It thrives well and bears 
three crops a year.—English Garden. 
The Showy Mush Mallow 
A showy and very handsome peren¬ 
nial of the easiest culture is Malva 
Moschata, shown in the engraving. 
Seeds germinate in five or six days, 
and the plants bloom freely the first 
season and remain, being a hard 3 r per¬ 
ennial. The flowers are large and very 
attractive, pleasantly scented, and 
come in fine terminal clusters through¬ 
out the season. Young plants often 
spring up from fallen seeds. This is 
a splendid garden flower and excellent 
for beds or groups. The plants, two 
feet high, stool out, branch, and be¬ 
come a mass of big flowers, always 
showy and admired. You make no 
mistake in getting this fine perennial. 
It will please you and stay by you.
