Re: Begonia

Just curious Jim, do you only do leaf cuttings on your Begonias? I've always taken stem cuttings and just stuck them in some soil. I've had about 100% success that way.

My guess is you propagate it like other begonias--whole or partial leaf cuttings. Never tried it with carolinifolia, but it worked with all other begonias that I've tried.

Once it warms up, Ceres, I'll get one of those flat, rigid boxes from

others to you.



Jim, I would love that but I do have carolinifolia and love the foliage.
How do you propagate?
