Flower Seeds —GERMANIA—For Florists 
17 
BEGONIAS 
NOTE: Many leading Begonias are the result of crosses, and if their seed is harvested and grown 
by others, the seed of the second generation segregates and produces worthless mixlures. 
Therefore, our seed comes direct from only the most renowned Specialists (Originators where- 
ever possible) and can be depended upon to produce plants true to name and which will 
show a marvelous uniformity in growth.
