The 
increasing popularity of Tu- 
berous or Bulb Begonias is partially 
due to the high standard of develop- 
ment attained in the last few years. 
Their requirements are compara- 
tively 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 po- 
rous. Mix in a sprinkling of bone 
meal. Plant in a shaded spot, as in 
tree shade or on the north side of the 
house, and keep well watered, fine 
overhead sprinkling preferred. 
In the range of color, beautiful va- 
riety of form and simple cultural re- 
quirements, they are without rival in 
the world of flowers.
