Begonia Trail  by tonygig

Begonia Trail

I have been putting all my Begonia Tubers to bed, to do this I wash every Tuber, Dry off then put them in newspaper, these then get stored in boxes over winter, some of the Tubers are over 30 years old. I have been at it over a week now and still have more to do. This photo's of a small flowered Begonia and trails down lovely in a hanging basket.
Well done Tony -- a real labour of love -- but then that is what a real gardener does - beautiful flower and leaf --fav

wow! That's dedication Tony and no wonder your garden looks so fabulous! When I worked as gardener I worked for a gentleman who wanted me to do just this thing. Cleaning all the tubers, and 'putting them to bed'. Then I had to clean all his pots with a toilet brush and disinfectant!! Happy days! Glad to see this beauty holding on. fav

I really like that red edging on the leaf, and the vibrant flower. My favourite so far.

Stunning color and I'm truly amazed so much time and effort goes into the care when putting them to bed for the winter.
