Begonia pics from the USBG

DC metro, VA(Zone 7b)

I just combined the photos of begonias that I took on two visits to the US Botanic Garden in DC. Thought some of you might enjoy....

viewing tip: in the slideshow mode, if you click on the photo, it will pause and show you the photo title, which is usually the name of the plant. (Of course, mis-named plants are more common than we want at some of the botanic gardens....)

Keyring, great pics! Especially love those rich greens in B. soli-mutata and 'Tiger Kitten'.

Hey, Keyring, do they also sell plants there? I didn't even know there was such a place and I'm close enough to visit on a weekend.

hi susan - no they don't sell....
If you go, make sure you go upstairs! I think late winter/early spring is a great time to visit - seem to be more flowers.....
