NOTE: These are the best dahlia 
offers that we have ever been able to 
make, in spite of increased labor and 
other costs, and is due only to increased 
dahlia sales in 1944 and quantity pur-

Camellia Flowered Tuberous Rooted Begonias 
See color cut on inside front cover. 
CULTURE 
Begonias are without doubt one of the most beautiful and satisfactory of all 
house or semi-tender outdoor bulbs. The lovely flowers are borne in profusion during 
the summer months, when planted outdoors in a moist shady spot, or in window or 
porch boxes on the north side of the house. They do not do well in direct sunlier 
when exposed to it over one-half of the day. 
Tubers start best in open trays where the bulbs are dampened slightly once in a 
while until the sprout appears, then plant in a flat or pot in a mixture of peat and 
sand, leaf mold and sand, or peat moss alone, all of which give excellent results. Plant 
tubers % inch below surface and keep moist, not wet. Do not transplant until there 
is 3 to 4 inches of growth, and if planted outside only when the weather is warm, gen- 
erally after May 15th, for best results. 
We offer these gorgeous flowers in five lovely colors: YELLOW, PINK, FLAMBE- 
ORANGE, CARDINAL RED and APRICOT. 
° Each 25c, 3 for 65c. One of each for $1.00.
