Is any one interested in adopting my Gerbera daisies ? They won't winter over and I hate to see them die, they have been so pretty. Any one interested in a trade for a begonia I can have indoors this winter? Lou
up for adoption in warm climate
Wonder if I can keep them over in the GH???
I would think so, they bloom much better here in the fall and spring when we have cool nights ( 40's)and daytime temps in the 60's. LMK. Lou
The only begonia I have is a big black leafed one,not sure what kind but its the only one I can't kill apparently!
I'll get a picture of it...
here's a picture.Its really pretty when it blooms,pink....
I'm willing to trade if you want to try them in theGH. I looked it up in the data base and it seems others have had success with doing this. (One had trouble with whiteflies in the greenhouse, so be prepared with some spray.)E-mail me and I will give you my addy and you can give me yours. I won't get them in the mail until Monday. Thanks, Lou
You got a deal!
you've got mail
That is a lovely Begonia and it looks familiar to me, but I can't remember it's name. I just sent the description to a friend who is a begonia addict, she can probably id it you you. Will let you know when I hear back from her.
Donna
cool,I'd love to know what it is
I went thru Logee's catalog trying to ID it but no luck
But I'm not good at ID's
Looks good to me. Hope to get an ID also. Lou
crestedchick,
Your begonia is called "Black Velvet" I have it. I also have the "Green Velvet" which is a forest green shade.
Daisy
that is a fitting name for it!
thanks so much!
Daisy, thanks for giving the name of this plant. I just heard back from my friend and she couldn't view the picture I sent.
