Imported Begonias. For brilliant color in shade plant camillia 
flowered Tuberose Begonias. (Not winter hardy, require lifting in 
fall). 
Huge flowers blossom continuously from early summer until 
frost. Easy to grow. Plant several groups for best effect, they re- 
quire little attention. 
Pot in rich soil according to directions which will be included 
with shipment. You will receive bulbs from April ist on. Keep them 
in the house until danger of killing frost is past. Keep the soil moist. 
In early June plunge pot in a shady location and keep well moistened. 
You will have blossoms from mid-June until frost. In fall remove 
bulb from soil and store in warm dry basement. (Note: Do not use 
Rapid Gro until stem is 3” high, then use weak solution.) 
B-55 Gladiolus Bulbs 25 for $5.00 50 for $9.75 
These bulbs are not winter hardy, must be lifted in fall. 
Gladiolus are usually grown to cut. They are easy to 
grow lined out like vegetables, but clumps of individual 
bulbs placed 8” apart make fine color splashes in the 
summer border. Well drained loam is preferred. Glads need 
full sun and a lot of water. They are excellent in hot 
weather and bloom from 70 to 80 days after planting. 
Space 4” apart and 5” deep. We ship a mixed grouping 
of large corms (bulbs) 114” to 2” and even larger in dia- 
meter. Lift bulbs 6 weeks after the corm blooms, but cut 
off foliage and dry in a frost free place. Dust with DDT 
before storing. 
B-56 Dahlias 12 for $5.00 25 for $10.00 
Dahlias are a tuber. They are lifted and kept over the 
winter. Dahlias require a rich soil and plenty of water 
during the growing season. They should be spaced 2’ to 3’ 
apart. After frost cut off the tops and lift, dry and dust 
with sulphur to prevent rot while storing over the winter 
in a dry place. Dahlias are easy to grow and along with 
gladiolus, roses and chrysanthemums make the most mag- 
nificent summer displays. We furnish a glorious assort- 
ment of colors which are sure to please.
