HARROLD’S PEDIGREED STRAIN - AMERICAN GROWN 
Dormant Tubers or Plants Ready t2 Set 
DORMANT TUBERS: These may still be planted indoors and moved into the summer fiowering situation as soon as danger of killing frost is past or they may be planted 
in the outdoor bed in the dormant condition when frost danger is past. In either case, if cultural conditions are reasonably favorable they should start flowering in from 
7 to 12 weeks after planting. This means that if planted dormant around May 15th, which is generally safe in most climates, the plant will begin flowering in late July 
or early August and give about six weeks to two months of good bloom in most localities; more where the season is long. While the season will be shorter than for the 
plants listed below or tubers that you may have planted earlier indoors, the flower season is still very much worthwhile and as long as that of many other plants you 
commonly culture in your garden and prize most highly. Because of their beauty there is certainly every reason for planting even dormant tubers of these yet. 
READY TO SET PLANTS: We have 50,000 of these coming along in our greenhouse for shipment to you in a growing condition, ready to plant right outdoors. 
Planted in February and March, these will begin flowering early and will give one to two months more bloom than the dormant tubers ordered now. We will start ship- 
ing them in late April or early May and continue to ship until the end of June or until the supply is exhausted. THESE PLANTS ARE GROWN FROM TUBERS - THEY 
ARE NOT SEEDLINGS. As far as we know we are the only firm offering Tuber Grown plants on a national scale. Compared with seedling plants commonly offered at 
this time of year, these plants will develop bloom more puickly, give a much longer flowering season, produce a much larger plant that develops many more flowers and 
will be found superior to seedling plants in every way. They cost a little more but are well worth the difference in the results they will give under normal good culture. 
WE OFFER TWO GRADES: It will be noted that we offer two sizes or grades of plants. There is absolutely no difference in the varieties or strain quality. The more 
expensive grade is grown from our regular retail tuber stock (tubers 1} to 2 inch diameter). The less costly grade is grown from our %4 to 14 inch tubers and when 
properly started in the greenhouse, they make husky plants that will give excellent results. Because of crop conditions all varieties are not available in both grades. 
You may use either, however, with confidence. The FANCIERS NOVELTY MIXTURE is an especially attractive item as it is all from large tubers and the varieties in- 
cluded cover our entire list, some listing as high as $1.00 per dormant tuber. 
CUR TUBEROUS BEGONIA CATALOGUE IN COLOR: While we believe that we have mailed copies to every one who will receive this offer we will be glad to 
supply additional copies on request. It gives a more complete description than is possible here along with much cultural data. OUR EIGHT PAGE, 8,000 word cultural 
booklet covering the history and culture of this plant is included FREE with each shipment of tubers or plants.

b) This is a nutrient compound, entirely organic in its composition, which we have developed for the cul- 
HARROLD S BEGONIA-GRO ture of Tuberous Begonias. Combined with peat moss or leafmold — loam or clay soil and sand it is 
possible to build a satisfactory growing medium for these tubers without cow manure which has always been considered so essential. It may also be used with cow manure 
with benificial results. It is a boon to the city gardener for it makes possible the growing and feeding of Tuberous Begonias in a satisfactory manner by combining it 
with common ingredients that are at hand. Full instructions accompany every package. Put up in packages containing enough to feed twelve tubers throughout the 
growing season. PRICE I§ FIFTY CENTS A PACKAGE POSTPAID.
