Marie, please share in excruciating detail every little thing you do (or don't do) to your Rex begonias in winter. You seem to be one of the few people who is successful in keeping them alive. And for 3 winters in a row! I think that must qualify you for some kind of Olympic Gold medal. LOL

I bought 4 little Rexes at Lowe's this spring and put them in planters outside. They have done beautifully but alas...frost nears and they must come into the house. I have killed every Rex I tried to winter over (at least I think I killed them. From what I have read recently they may have just gone into a dormant state and I dumped them before they got a chance to come back.) and I really want these babies to have a fighting chance.
