TUBEROUS BEGONIA SEEDS 
It is now time to order your seed of these for planting this coming season. New 
crop seed will start becoming available in October and will be in your hands to 
start planting for the early season. In the warmer climates early planting is advised 
and here late November or early December is not too early. Where summers are 
cool and hot weather comes late or not at all plantings made as late as mid April 
will show some bloom the first year and make nice tubers for the following season. 
Depending on the time of year and culture given it is possible to have many blooms 
in four to six months after planting. 
The plants are usually transplanted twice and set out doors after danger of 
frost is past, when they are about 5 to 8 inches high. Normally such plants will 
start blooming by August and continue until frost. Seedling plants are of course 
later to bloom than those grown from tubers. You may grow tubers for next year 
planting from these seeds planted this season. 
The seeds are extremely fine and require careful attention to their culture. 
This requirement is fully covered in detail by our 17 page cultural booklet that 
accompanies each shipment. Pleasing results can be obtained with a little care. 
HARROLD’S FANCIERS MIXTURE

consists of over a hundred different types and colors and will afford attractive sales

GREENHOUSE GROWN 
B CGOwta Tubers 
We have about 30,000 commercial and 100,000 planter tubers of these American 
Bred Tuberous Begonia Tubers growing in our greenhouses. They will be harvested 
in about another month and ready for delivery soon after the middle of November. 
This gives you stock of American Bred strain quality for planting before or as soon 
as the imported stock is available. Because these commercials were planted as 
planters last February they are mature, have grown their full seasonal cycle and 
have been cured off naturally without being cut back by frost. They will make plants 
when early planted more quickly and are recommended for the development of early 
pot plants for spring sale. These tubers will be 1 to 2% inch diameter random 
size. They’ll all bloom well under proper culture. 
The planters we offer here are produced from late sown seed and will range 
from '% to 1 inch diameter. Planted early they will develop plants for spring 
bedding sale that show more bloom and are larger than the seedlings you can 
produce this season. Because more of them can be had in bloom by selling time 
next April and May they are well worth the small increase in cost and you save 
yourself the tedious seeding and tran planting required when growing from seed. 
ORDER NOW. WE’LL SHIP FOR EARLY PLANTING SEASON 
AS SOON AFTER HARVEST AS POSSIBLE.
