Here is my HUGE pot of Dragon Wing Begonias.....it all started with a 10" HB. It has been in a 20" pot now for 2 yrs.

Now the plant is at least 3' across and blooming it's head off. I still want to carry it over to next Year. Will have to cut it back (seriously) before I bring it in.

If you have never bought this plant---it is the most awesome, flowering plant you can have in your Garden or in a large container.
You can also carry it over in your house for the WINTER.....I dig the smaller ones I have up and pot them up in gallon pots and keep them by a bright window in my spare bedroom. They DO go semi-dormant, but they will perk right up when you bring them outside.
