TUBEROUS-ROOTED BEGONIAS 
These are wonderful summer-flowering bulbs for 
partly shaded spots in the garden. They are also 
excellent for pots and window boxes. Rich, moist 
soil will produce magnificent waxy blooms of un- 
believable beauty. The tubers are started indoors 
in spring and not moved outdoors until all danger of 
frost is past. In late fall they need to be brought 
into the house for storing over winter. 
Order your bulbs early. If you want them for 
house plants or for early blooms in the garden, pot 
them up im late January or February. If you are 
going to put the dry bulbs right out in the garden, 
we will pack your order and cold-storage your bulbs 
here until the proper planting season. 
Double. Very showy, large flowers shaped like an 
exquisite camellia. Blooms freely all summer. 
Heavy, velvety petals arranged in perfect forma- 
tion. Pink, Red, Yellow, Orange, White. 
Carnation-Flowered (Fimbriata). Double, 
fringed flowers of great charm, resembling a 
carnation. Very popular for any purpose—as a 
house plant, for bedding and for cutting. Their 
frilled petals give them a crisp and dainty look 
that is most appealing. Pink, Red, Yellow, 
Orange, White.
