B for Begonia

IMG_4060Begonia Fireworks, part of a small display in the Glasshouse at RHS Wisley. Reminds me that I rather like them and should find room for one, or three, at home. I overheard a customer just this last week commenting on how tolerant of, how shall I say, a regime of benign neglect they can be. Now that may not be at all true (it isn’t unless they have the right conditions, when it might be) but I shall investigate. Dibleys anyone?
