For the Begonia 
Enthusiast 
Every year I plant out thou¬ 
sands of tubers for the sole 
purpose of allowing you Be¬ 
gonia enthusiasts an oppor¬ 
tunity to select and stake the 
particular plants you want. 
The tubers of the plants you 
stake are reserved for you. At 
the proper planting time they 
are delivered to you with 
enough of our special Oak 
leafmold to properly start the 
tubers. 
These specially staked tub¬ 
ers sell for 25c each. 
You may stake 1 or 100.

Carnation or Fimbriatta Plena 
This handsome and most interesting type is well deserving of 
all its popularity. The fine double blossoms so resemble those of 
a gorgeous carnation that it is really hard to believe one’s eyes. 
The flowers are not quite as large as some of the other types, 
but they are produced very freely. Colors same as Single Frilled. 
CARNATION BEGONIA 
Double or Camellia Flowered 
Picottee Type 
These new Picottees are far superior to the old Marmorata 
types. Due to improvement of size and form this group rightfully 
belongs in the Camellia flowered class. Fascinating two-tone 
color combinations appear in great variation, sometimes with 
strong contrasts, other times softly blended. Add a few to your 
collection this year. I know you’ll like them. Colors include Red 
Picottee shades. Rose Picottee shades and Salmon Picottee shades. 
Tubers, 20c each; $2.00 per doz.; $14.00 per 100.
