Gorgeous Karen, I've not seen this type of Begonia before, gotta find out where to buy! :o)
5 Jun, 2012
The flowers are HUGE, SL!!! :)

Never seen it before either, Franny. It's like "Bonfire" but much BIGGER!!! :)

is it a tuberous one ? i'll have to look out for it.
5 Jun, 2012
I don't know, SL...am hopeless on that front... :(
but...do you think that I could keep it alive over the winter??
5 Jun, 2012
if it's tuberous then yes, when she starts to die back, stop watering and see if there is a tuber there, if so wait for it to die back completely then keep them frost free and dry till next year,,, if no tuber they are just an annual type...

Okay...I'll do that...lord, I hope she's a tuberous one!!! :)

Lol...

Lol it would be nice, fingers crossed for you :-)

Franny, the wee one in the pot, just behind is "Bonfire"...
...and I've been in love with it for a couple of years...
Now, I think that they should have been named the other way round!
I hope that you find "Million Kisses"...she would look fab in one of your baskets! :)))

beautiful!

She so is , Pix...
...and I didn't even want a hanging basket!!!
5 Jun, 2012
She is a tuberous one! And if you take cuttings you can make more tubers!! Apparently, it's one of the easiest begonias to keep! Hurray!!
Franny, they are all "million kisses"...I've got "elegance" (lovely pink and cream) and "bonfire"...I think that this one is called "Red Devotion". :))))

Lol....Good news Karen, I've managed to find seeds from 'Parkers' but I'm too impatient for that, so I'm on a couple of other places that are going to email me when 'back in stock' :o)

They seem to be flying off the shelves, Fran...I hope you get one soon! :) x
