Begonia field trip - EYE CANDY!! -

Northern California, CA(Zone 9a)

Last week I was invited to the home of a friend, Carol Notaras, who is the American Begonia Society's treasurer - to see her amazing collection of begonias and I wanted to share some photos. Her beautiful house sits in the Pacific Heights area of San Francisco.

For the ease of posting, I'll just link to my Flickr account. http://flickr.com/photos/begonias-photos/sets/72157600411001182/

She had hundreds of begonias growing under her lath houses as well as in her fantastic roof-top greenhouse. Talk about green with envy! In addition, she grows dozens and dozens of Epiphyllum, many are her own hybrids.

Enjoy the virtual field trip.

Ohh, most delicious. Thanks for sharing. That is one of the joys of Dave's Garden, to see what the experts are able to achieve.
