Hello all. I was looking through a catalog the other day and saw some "Roseform" and "On Top" begonia pictures. They stopped me dead in my tracks. Extremely beautiful! So I ordered a grouping of 6 different ones and have a shady spot all ready for them plus a pot for a couple of them. I have learned a little bit here and there from searches on-line, but I am wondering if anyone here has any expertise with begonias??????

Don't have any of my own but the world experts are right up the road from me (Logee's Greenhouses in Danielson, CT). Generally they are easy as long as you keep them moist and coolish; in colder climes you can lift them and propagate leaf starts indoors during the winter. Fun plants with lots of firepower; enjoy!

If the blooms are even half as nice as those in the catalogs I will be super happy!
