Begonias April 9, 2011

In Victorian times, Begonias were all the rage not for the flowers but for their extravagant foliage and form. During the mid Twentieth Century, they developed into a bedding plant, and those forms from the Victorian times fell into obscurity. Today, the species and selections that feature those beautiful, bold and colorful leaves are back! Christina will highlight a number of these wonderful plants that are easy to grow both inside and out. Discussions on culture and various techniques on propagation will be included in the discussion.
