B. ‘Weltonensis Alba’
The Canadian horticulturist, v. 25-26, 1902 B. weltoniensis: Many varieties of summer flowering begonias can be had however that will give splendid results in windows or on verandahs where the sun shines for perhaps only an hour or two, morning and evening. Amongst the most effective and easily growing kinds is the pink flowering Weltoniensis begonia, also the white flowering variety (Weltoniensis alba, Fig. 2354), the former being the most robust and easiest to grow of the two kinds. Being of a semi-tuberous nature both of them can be kept partially dormant during the winter, but must not be dried off completely in the same way that the tuberous varieties are.
