BEGONIA NOVELTIES 
New Tuberous-rooted Begonia, 
PUSCE ZEPPELIN . 
A most useful and attractive variety that should soon 
become a favorite for bedding, possessing the great ad¬ 
vantage over other tuberous-rooted Begonias of delighting 
in full sunshine. It is of dwarf habit, growing from 
6 to 8 inches high, throwing up well above the foliage 
numberless stems bearing full, double-dazzling scar¬ 
let flowers, giving the whole plant a brightness, grace 
and elegance difficult to describe. A bed containing about 
500 plants of this variety, for gorgeous effect, eclipsed any¬ 
thing we ever saw. Strong bulbs 35c., 4 for $1.00. 
This superb tuberous Begonia is still un¬ 
known in this country. It soon attains a 
height of 2 feet, forming a fine, erect, stout- 
stemmed bush with shining green foliage edged 
with bright red. It produces innumerable 
very large faintly sweet-scented flowers 
of very delicate bright rose, set oil' with 
golden stamens. It blooms as well in 
full s un as in any other situation, and keeps 
on flowering until fall. 
Bulbs 20c. each, 3 for 50c.

The Flowers are single, of good size, and ex¬ 
tremely varied ia color, some beautiful and 
rare shades of copper color being found 
amongst them. The remarkable feature, how¬ 
ever, is that on each petal a miniature forest 
has grown, composed of curiously-twisted 
threads, forming near the center of tire flower 
a dense crest or beard, giving the flower a very 
gay and puzzling aspect. 
Very ornamental and highly interesting.
