Tuberous Rooted Begonias 
The increasing popularity of Tuberous or Bulb Begonias is partially due to 
the high standard of development attained in the last few years. This ex- 
quisite class of flowers was first introduced about 1860 from the mountains of 
South America. It has taken 80 years of patient labor by hybridizers to bring 
the tuberous Begonias to their present state of perfection. 
Their requirements are comparatively simple. If the soil is heavy or hard, 
add plenty of leaf mold, peat moss or sand, or a mixture of all, so that the 
ground will be light and porous. Mix in a sprinkling of bone meal. Plant ina 
shaded spot, as in tree shade or on the north side of the house, and keep well 
watered, fine overhead sprinkling preferred. To prevent loss of bulbs when 
planted early or in cold or wet ground, start in peat in flats, set 3 inches apart, 
slightly covered. Keep uniformly moist in warm, well-lighted place until 3 or 4 
inches of growth develops, then plant in pots or in the garden as desired. 
In the range of color, beautiful variety of form and simple cultural require- 
ments, they are without rival in the world of flowers, produced in separate 
types and colors in amazing array.
