RE: Hardiness of Begonia grandis 'Alba'?

Gene,
Here is the URL www.heronswood.com , type begonia in the search window and
then select EDHCH 97042.  There is a good picture as well as his notes about
the plant.  Have fun browsing :).
 By the way Begonia sutherlandii has been hardy for me for 5 years.  It
makes a small tuber, so when it goes dormant in the fall, the tuber can be
stored in a cool dry place for the next year.  It is very nice - small
tangerine flowers in abundance all summer.  It trails so is excellent in a
container.

OK, Marilyn,
    You have my attention... but I do not have a HWood catalog to look at
the back cover. How about some more information.... web site address and
photo?
At the least, a name or two... maybe some description?? Zone hardiness
rating??
    Inquiring minds now need to know... more than ever.
