B. ‘Ameliae’

A wonderfully free growing Begonia, of sterling worth and great beauty. This has the habit of frequently blooming at the junction of the ribs of the leaf, and it imparts a novel appearance when exhibiting this peculiar character. However, this peculiarity is not fixed, for like the other varieties it also flowers from the axil of the leaf. The plant is very compact in growth, forming a dense, well-propor bush. Flowers carmine rose, and produced in great abundance during the winter and spring months. We recommend this very highly to all who love good Begonias.
