I brought this Begonia in just in time. It was out last night with freezing temp, but I thought just before dark about it and threw a cardboard box over it. This is only 2/3 rds of the plant. I potted up two others from it too. A friend had given it to me two years ago as a hanging basket and it never has done much. Last year I planted it under Elephant ears, and "Blackie" potato vine almost covered it. I missed it the first night I brought items in and just couldn't let it freeze. I went out in the yard when I got home from work today and uncovered a surprise! It is five times the size it was last year when I all but gave up on it.
