GLOXINIAS 
Hallawell’s California Tubers for 
Growing in Pots 
Gloxinias are beautiful semi-tropical plants. 
They require a warm moist temperature such 
as in a greenhouse or sun room. They need 
shade and plenty of moisture during the grow- 
ing and blooming season. When they have 
finished blooming, dry them off gradually, 
then store the tubers in slightly moist peat. 
They are usually good for two or three plant- 
ings. Sometimes we run short of tubers in 
some of the colors listed and we can generally 
substitute other interesting color variations. 
When ordering, please state if we may sub- 
stitute. We offer the following colors: Blue and 
White, Crimson, Purple, Scarlet, Sky Blue, 
White. 
Tubers: 75c each; 3 for $1.85; 6 for $3.25; 
12 for $6.00.
