Description
The Gardeners' chronicle, ser. 3, v. 42 (1907) B. Miss Clibran: This is described as being a hybrid Begonia, obtained from a cross between a tuberous variety and B. socotrana. It is, therefore, a winter flowering variety belonging to the section raised by Messrs. Jas. Veitch & Sons. The flowers are double, rich pink in color, and are very freely produced. Judged by its habit as shown and the finely developed foliage, this plant has an excellent constitution, and is capable of making very free growth. It may be described as a more vigorous ‘Julius’. Shown by the raisers, Messrs. W. Clibran & son. (See fig. 136.)
