It sounds like the ABS convention will be in San Francisco next year and probably in September which is a bummer for temperate growers (no time to grow them on before winter which is a real downer). No firm dates set that I've seen.

Where did you order your begonias from? Sometimes you get surprises which can be bad or good. But if you are buying them either locally or on the road, buy first and worry about names later because if you wait and then go back - they may be bought by someone else who cares more about beauty than a name.
