These showy Ball Dahlias are 
the most perfectly formed and 
beautiful of them all. Every 
flower is a specimen in itself. 
No trick at all to grow them. 
All you need to do is just give 
them ordinary ‘“‘potato’’ care. 
When they bloom in your gar- 
den you will understand why 
most people prefer the showy 
Ball type. Fine for border plants

good as that tree is. 
In early spring, Crimson King has leaves 
of bright red, and 
some time into the summer, when the tops 
of the leaves gradually turn bronze, with the 
undersides green. 
Crimson King was originated 
and, several years ago, brought to this coun- 
try, patented, and placed in production. The 
supply is limited, but we will ship on a first- 
come first-served basis as long as we can.

Here is the indoor house 
plant that will produce color- 
ful blossoms almost 12 months 
out of the year. And they get 
bigger and better as time 
goes on. The plants make a 
large, rounded ball of foliage 
that is thickly set with beau- 
tiful, double blossoms that 
look like tiny rose buds. 
(These are the fibrous rooted 
Begonias, not the tuberous 
snooted type.) 
They like a warm place and 
sunshine in the winter, but 
should be kept out of the di- 
rect sun. It’s hard to beat 
the Rose Bud Begonias in the 
porch box, and they make 
fine summer bedding plants
