If you are interested in begonias you should go to a convention. The one this year is in San Franciso Aug 17-22. Check the ABS site for more information.

We also are having our annual sale July 31st at the Buckhead Men's Garden Club. I go to FL and buy beautifully grown begonias for the sale the past two years and will be going again next month. You need to get there early because the best ones are sold in ten minutes.

Here are two I bought for myself in the past two years (Challenger two years ago is the tall one and came with two bonus smaller begonias and Red Umbo last year also had one bonus begonia - a green form heracleifolia). I love freebies. The grey one is U357 and hasn't grown as much as I would like so far this year.
