I got a new plant for my entry

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

I like a splash of color by my gate. I had a bright fuchsia but it suddenly looked yellow. I saw this one and it looks like fire when the sun hits it. It is named Torch............ I wonder why? LOL

So many kinds of begonias, it is a most entertaining family!

Wow, beauty!! Don't find named canes for sale out here often! Good score.

Look at these that Zuzu and I saw at Passanissi last week. Great price and they were huge. Something must have been wrong with me that day, I passed them up!!

Those are great for a huge pot, makes a big statement and flower all summer. Don't you know I have one. LOL

That price is great.

I must say begonias just flower all season long.

Yes Kell, begonias are a super plant!
The were my first plant addiction many years ago. Now I'm slooowly getting a few more .

We don't have many resources for plants here so I really enjoy the photos everyone shares of the shopping trips.

I recently bought this one. When I saw it and the tag read 'cane begonia, torch' I thought it was mislabeled. I have never seen a hanging cane begonia. But it was a beautiful color with dark leaves and it's real hard to find begonias in my area, so I bought it and now I'm real glad I did. I also bought a neon orange one with silver spotted leaves no label. Thanks for posting the picture.

Susan, I wonder if they are from the same grower! Wouldn't that be something!

MsCritterkeeper, I always liked them too. Always had a few. But Lali girl has made me wild for them. Now I have to have them. LOL
