FIBROUS ROOTED 
While Fibrous Rooted Begonias may be sown at any 
time, a January sowing will produce choice plants 
for spring combinations or bedding. Important 
points in sowing are to use no soil covering on this 
fine seed and keep uniformly moist. All our Begonia 
seed is triple cleaned by hand, insuring more good 
seed and less dust in every packet. Remember— it’s 
plants per packet that really count.
