REX BEGONIAS 
The Rex Begonias form one of the most brilliant and interesting 
group of all foliage plants. With their beautiful colorings of green, silver, 
lavendar, rose and deep maroon shades, combined with many variations, 
the color combinations are very striking. 
The leaves are various shapes, sizes and form, with some spiraled, 
ruffled or irregular edges. 
With the popularity of the indoor planters, shade gardens and patio, 
the Rex have become quite a fad. They are also ideal for the conservatory 
or orchid house. 
If grown outside during the summer they should have deep shade or 
diffused light. If in the frost belt they should be removed indoors where 
you can enjoy them during the winter as a house plant. 
We have been growing prize winning Rex for several years and next 
spring will have a good selection of well rooted plants in 2% inch pots 
for 50 cents each. Larger plants can be obtained at our gardens.
