Heavy tremendous flowered Begonias 
for balcony, windowboxes and indoor 
ftM Begonias are equally popular and useful both for decorating the 
' , ***"* ■ OHWI ■ outside of the house and of cheering up your rooms. They flower 
abundantly for a long period with strong stems, graceful foliage, enormous flowers in warm 
colors and are therefore exceedingly suitable for balcony and window-boxes, whereas 
they are really luxurious indoor plants. As they lack the natural nutrition of full garden 
soil, the bulbs supplied for these purposes are of specially selected quality, possessing 
so much substance that they are bound to thrive. Cultivation : The window and balcony 
boxes are filled within 2 inches off the top with good leaf-mould or soil mixed with peat'; 
the bulbs are placed thereon at spaces of 4 inches, after which the boxes are entirely filled. 
The soil should be kept constantly moist and the plants protected from fierce sunshine. 
Bulbs for indoors should also be planted 2 inches deep and require a light position, but 
should not be placed immediately in the full sunlight. Water them regularly, but prevent 
the water from touching the foliage, by pouring it upon the soil. Protect them from draught, 
as this often causes the heavy flowers to fall off. If you follow the above instructions, 
failure with our heavy bulbs is out of the question.
