Tuberous Rooted Begonias 
Culture. A popular method of culture is to 
provide a pan or box, and cover the bottom 
to the depth of one inch with peat moss, 
placing the bulb immediately on top and 
then covering with still another layer of peat 
moss. They should be kept moist and mod- 
erately warm. As soon as roots appear plant 
in pots in a light soil, one inch below the 
surface, and water cautiously until plant has 
shown growth, then increase the amount. 
Good drainage is essential. 
While professional gardeners start tubers in 
pots indoors during early spring, the dor- 
mant bulbs may be planted 10 inches apart 
in the open ground during May with excel- 
lent results. They will thrive in partial shade. 
Planted on the north side of a house they 
will make a beautiful display and in those 
places where hardly any other flower will 
bloom satisfactorily.
