Re: tuberous begonias


Nancy S - love those tuberous begonias.  I am starting them in my little
greenhouse right now and have done so for the last few years.  I find them very
productive and I have them in a spot under a tree with fairly dense shade most
of the day and then direct sun for the last two hours.  And they prosper.  I
never remember to bring the tubers in, but won't forget this year (I promise
myself).
