Description
The Gardeners' chronicle, ser. 3, v. 22, (1897) B. Mrs. W. B. Hartland: The fine variety of tuberous- rooted Begonia delineated in fig. 108, p. 367, was raised by Mr. W. Baylor Hartland, nurseryman, at Ard Cairn and Patrick Street, Cork, and is named after his wife. The flowers are pure white, double, and held erect on stout stalks; and the plant is free-blooming, well suited therefore for bedding, and equally suited for cultivation in pots for conservatory decoration. We are indebted to Mr. Hartland's kindness for the use of the woodcut.
