BEGONIA 
Very snowy plants, and of great value for bedding. They do well in 
shady places where few other plants will bloom. Sow seed in February and 
March in the hotbed or greenhouse, and you will have nice plants for setting 
out in June. Just press the seed into the soil, as it is so fine that only a very 
slight covering can be given.
