Begonias not blooming. Why?

Port Lavaca, TX(Zone 9a)

I have 3 begonias in hanging baskets. One is blooming beautifully. Two just won't bloom. What can I do to make them bloom. Also I need to know what kind they are. The first one is slightly varigated.

This is the second one. It gets morning sun.

alot of begonias aren't everbloomers. i have a few that only bloom in the winter and they seem to like it cooler. these really hot climes are hard on them. just a thought. even my everbloomer has stopped for the moment. sometimes they just need a rest. if yours is supposed to be blooming now, try feeding with something not so high on the first number. i use osmocote for vegis, lower nitrogen and that seems to help sometimes. debi
