(Illustrated in colors on the back cover of this book.) No painter's colors or lithographer's inks can do justice to the brilliancy and richness of color of these two brilliant Begonias, and the colored illustration on the back cover of this book con- veys but a faint idea of their dazzling intensity For several years we have had a large bed of these two varieties at our nurseries, planted in a semi-shaded position, and it has always been the brightest and most attractive bed on our grounds, where a blaze of color is the rule during the summer months, and was a revelation to all visitors. Both varieties are of strong but dwarf habit, never exceeding 8 or 10 inches in height, and throw up numberless stems of full, double flowers from early in July until cut down by severe frost. A continuous display of color wdiich for richness and intensity is unapproached by any other flower. Duke Zeppelin. Intense pure vermilion-scarlet. 25 cts. each ; $ per doz.; $ per 100. Lafayette. P)rilliant crmison-scarlet. 30 cts. each; $ per doz.; $ per 100. Two of each for $
