Description
Revue Horticole, Annee 83 (1911) (translated via Google Translate) New Tuberous Begonias: Tuberous Begonia breeders are continuing their improvements and making further progress. Each year, at the Paris Spring Exhibition, our specialists, Mr. Arthur Billard and MM. Vallerand, present in their beautiful lots of new varieties. Note a double multiflora Begonia, obtained by Mr. Billard. and which has great qualities; it is the variety, Ami Jean Bard, extremely bushy plant, literally covered in flowers that have the appearance of small pompoms dresses, a yellow copper color that did not exist before in the double multifloras. It comes from two very popular varieties, Washington and Colonel Laussedat.
