Of medium height, with deep green, glossy leaves and clusters of pearly-white flowers, which are produced in great profusion all the year around. Vernon - This variety is of unusual merit as a bedding sort, flowering fully as freely when planted out as when gro^^'n as a pot plant. It begins flowering when first planted and continues throughout the whole season until stopped by frost. Foliage rich, glossy green, often shaded deep bronze. Flowers at first opening are a deep red changing to a beautiful clear rose in the fully opened flower. This stands the sun well and is altogether one of the prettiest sorts. Price of acbove varieties, 10 cents eoLch, ex Washingtonia A Winter-flowering variety, with glossy- leaves and immense panicles of pure white flowers. Weltoniensis—An exceedingly fine variety, with small leaves of delicate green; stems bright crimson; blossoma waxy pink; produced freely Summer and Autmnn. Lesoudsli—This is the largest leafed of any of the Rex family. It is difficult to describe the beautiful markings of this magnificent Begonia. It is a cross between Diadema and a Rex variety, but retains, in a marked degree, the Rex character. Price. 20 cents. President Carnot - A remarkably strong growing variety of stlfl', upright habit. Foliage very large, somewhat in style of B. Rubra, but more than twice as large. Upper side deep green, under side purple-red
