“My canterbury bells were gorgeous last summer. 
A stranger offered me folding money for a ‘tree’ of 
lupins as he met me on my way to decorate the 
church with a huge armful of lovely pink lupins. 
He couldn’t believe that 15c plus a bit of care and 
time yielded such profits.”

TUBEROUS ROOTED BEGONIAS 
Brilliant Color in the Shade 
GIANT CAMELLIA-FLOWERED TYPE. No one who has successfully grown these showy 
flowers is ever without a planting of them. The fact that they do best in a partially shaded place 
recommends their use especially to city gardeners who have the problem of shade. Give them 
fairly rich soil, a reasonable amount of moisture and decent air circulation and you will be 
rewarded with glorious color until frost. If buds of the two small female blossoms are removed as 
soon as they appear on either side of the large male blossom, the size and beauty of the center 
flower will be greatly improved. Ideal for shady window boxes. Colors: white, rose, yellow, 
annot be planted outdoors until after danger of 
cify otherwise. Be sure to tell us if you
