Very nice Essie Hunt or whatever its name is. We are in the low 20's this morning and may be in the teens tomorrow. I covered my remaining outdoor potted plants (ferns, rubber tree, ponytail palm, tibouchina, banana tree, etc.) with a tarp and hope they make it. At least all my begonias are indoors except for Dragon Wings which I am going to treat as an annual from now on.

Saw the news this morning stating that there was a cold snap in your neck of the woods. http://www.cnn.com/2006/WEATHER/12/08/big.chill/index.html

I'll email Paul and ask the name of the Essie Hunt sport. I was too overwhelmed that day to remember to take photos of name tags after the plant photo.

Just received word from Paul that the variegated sport of Essie Hunt is named Begonia 'Glynnis Crouch' and his comment is that "it is fairly unstable compared to other variegated begonias, it keeps trying to become Essie Hunt again"

So there ya have it gang. =º)
