I just ordered two new hardy begonias, Sept 3. Is it too late to plant them outside or can I over winter them indoors till spring?

I guess that depends on the hardiness zone for your area, and what the hardiness zone of the plant is. You could also check with the person that you purchased it from. If you need more information on hardiness zones, see this article:

If you are not sure what zone you live in you can check out the maps:

Thanks GO, I'll check with the company like you said
. I do know they are hardy here but am concerned they won't have time to establish before the ground freezes.

If they were outside, they should be adapting to the cooler weather, and lower light conditions, and should go into dormancy. If hardy, like you mentioned, then you for-sure want to get them in the ground soon so they will get established. Hope the company was able to provide more information. Best wishes with them. They seem like they'll be exciting to grow!
