Plant

Description
The Garden, v. 15, (1879) Last year I saw in the nurseries of Messrs. Laing & Co., Forest Hill, over 150 distinct varieties of these tuberous-rooted Begonias in pots. They were arranged in one house and comprised nearly all the sorts that are worthy of culture. Amongst them were: President Burelle and Louis Van Houtte the two last double-flowered kinds. ; Double Flowers, Orange-Scarlet.
