OUTSTANDING 
Vi Bel 
egonias 
In this group we offer the most outstanding named varieties of 
American origin and production. These come from various sources, in 
all cases from the originator of the variety. Because of the methods 
necessary to the production of such stock the crop is always quite 
limited and is also in great demand because of its quality. Because of 
this prompt action will be absolutely necessary if you wish to obtain 
any of these. 
Tubers are not graded to size but will be supplied in a size that 
will give good bloom when cultured under conditions that are reason- 
ably suitable. Another factor which makes this rule necessary is that 
there is considerable variation in the size tuber produced by the 
various varieties and some never make as large a tuber as some of the 
others do. This has no bearing, however, on the flower size or produc- 
tion. Deliveries of these will be from outdoor cultures mostly so ship- 
ping will start in January.

PROPAGATING TUBERS 
Small tubers from ¥%’’ to 1’’ diameter which are produced from late sown 
seedlings. With suitable culture these will produce larger plants more quickly and 
with less cultural exactness than culturing from seed planted now. They make nice 
plants for spring and early summer sale from 3 or 4 inch pots and when bedded out 
usually give good bloom from August until frost. As these are the last stock to be 
harvested they can not be shipped before about the end of February at the earliest.
