It grows huge! In the house for the winter--it gets leggy and drops a lot of bottom leaved. No worry--as EVERY year, I cut the tops off and root them. Every 2 or 3 year-- I pull the whole plant out and discard the older roots and re-pot the better ones. And--it grows to about 3' tall again. This is how I have kept it going all these years. many people call Begonias with the "wing-like leaves "Anger Begonia". Even the one we are talking about here. There are so many kinds....Not sure they can all be called that-though. Here is my big one. Gita |
