Planter with 'bonfire' begonia
Comments on this photo
We had trouble finding small specimens to transplant into these planters which we got at the end of last fall, and had to go from nursery to nursery to find them.. I've seen pictures of these plants in full bloom here on GoY and can hardly wait till ours get to that stage ..
They've been surprisingly hardy. I thought we were going to lose them in the near freezing temps we've had, but they've been quietly growing and opening the odd flower bud to hold us over until they really get going :)

Hope they really get going for you - I think the striking bonfire flower will match the great planter so well.

This will make a great display when it grows a little more - they are a lovely plant with a fantastic flower.
