“Please send those tuberous begonias earlier as 
I would like to start them indoors with the others 
I got from you last year. You should have seen 
them, they were truly the showplace of the neigh- 
borhood. Had as many as 15 large flowers on 
one plant at one time and they bloomed all sum- 
mer till frost. We would never again do without 
them”
