BEGONIAS 
FIBROUS ROOTED 
For your convenience we have 
grouped all the Fibrous Rooted 
Begonias into 3 classes; Dwarf, 
Intermediate and Tall, rather 
than the old and confusing 
classification of Semperflorens 
and Gracilis. We have ample 
supplies of our own perfectly- 
cleaned, greenhouse - grown 
seed of nearly all varieties 
listed below. Seed may be sown 
at any time, but a summer sow- 
ing will produce choice pot 
plants for Christmas and early 
winter. 
DWARF CLASS 
*Ball Red. Fairly dwarf in growth and of uniform, per- 
fectly rounded habit. The plants are literally covered 
with medium large flowers of bright scarlet red with 
no rose shading. Because this variety, as well as its 
parent King of the Reds, is somewhat less resistant to 
a form of rot than most others, care must be used to 
control soil moisture and humidity especially when 
plants are small. Watering should be done only in the 
mornings of bright days. Tr. pkt., $1.00; «r oz., 
$2.75; ss oz., $5.00.
