You will-need a box to hold the
bulbs, and a supply of peatmoss_
for the final stage, but right now
just dig up each bulb, being
careful not to knock off the top
growth. If. you have very tall
begonias, you may have to break
off the tops part way. down. so
that the whole thing doesn’t snap
offright at the base...

If-some of them: do break off
don’t panic, the bulb is unlikely
to die. The idea here is to allow
the remaining top growth to give
the bulbs a final plumping up to
keep thern. from. shriveling over
the winter.-I leave the soil at-

tached to the bulbs when I dig |

them up, and spread them out on
the floor until the tops are dead
and fall off when touched:

At this time the dirt: may. be

‘scraped off (onto newspapers)

and your. bulbs dipped into -a
solution. of bleach and water .°. .
ai tablespoon of bleach to a pint
of water should kill any fungus

-growth, and give any. grubs in-

vading the bulbs a severe case of
indigention! Another method of
cleaning your bulbs for storage is
to shake them.in a paper bag to
which you have added sulphur,
