BULBS 
Begonias 
Tuberous Rooted 
Attractive and showy these produce excellent reasonably 
priced pot plants in a short time and they are nice for out- 
door bedding in semi-shaded places. Will flower midwinter 
under lights. 
Forcing can be started in February, March or April, de- 
pending on time of bloom desired. Soil should be light and 
porous and the bulbs set to a depth of one inch. Soil should 
be kept moist but not wet. We offer Belgian grown bulbs 
ready in January.

The largest and most popular of the double forms. Individual 
flowers 5-8” in diameter. Nice for corsages and other cut 
flower purposes. Crimson, Yellow, Rose, Scarlet, White.

MULTIFLORA TYPE 
These are especially recommended for outdoor group plant- 
ings as they are more resistant to the summer heat. The 
varieties we offer below are extremely free flowering and 
are suited for forcing in pots as well as for bedding. Bulbs 
appear to be deformed but this is a natural characteristic of 
this type. All bulbs 1-2” in diameter.
