BEGONIAS, Tuberous-Rooted 
_ Words cannot describe the beauty of these gorgeous flowers, 
single or double. One is as fine as the other, and whether the 
color is crimson, pink, scarlet, white, yellow, or salmon, every 
bloom is breath-taking. 
They require shade and do best in a loose soil with equal 
parts of loam, leaf-mold, and sand, kept moist but not too wet. 
Start in the hotbed, or in barely moist sand near the furnace, 
being sure the concave side is up. Cover with ^ inch of sand 
and keep barely moist; when started, pot and keep in a sunny 
window until frost danger has passed, then plant out, or plant 
tubers outside after all danger of frost is past.

Hardy Water-lilies can be sent any time from May 1 until the end of August, but tender Lilies not before June. Order early.
