for greenhouse culture. In Florida and Southern California they may be 
grown in lath houses or in shady spots in the garden provided they are 
protected from winds. Plant in 5-inch or larger pots, using same compost 
as for Tuberous Rooted Begonias. Plant shallow, barely covering the bulbs.

ing never wet the foliage, as it will cause spots. 50c ea.
