Where to get Brad Thompson begonias

Is Kartuz the only place to get Brad thompson begonias?

Could be. Brad lives there and works with Mr. Kartuz. He had his own greenhouse there and it is chockful of incredible begonias.

Every plant was perfect in there!

And just because they were so pretty, here is a shot of their main greenhouse.

OH gosh Girl, why do you have to torture me like this LOL

I have been drooling fo r those begonias, I may just have to buy some LOL

I had such fun there. All their plants looks fabulous too. I wanted them all.

Here is Mike Kartuz, a nice guy.

I would probably have a good time there too LOL i've already placed 3 orders with him this year. But none were for begonias

I think he has more begonias than anything else. Looking at these pictures, I want to go too! LOL

I need this one.

That is georgious

OMG! KELL! Which one is that last one?!!!! Name, rank and serial number please. I want that!
Daisy

That last one looks like 'Muddy Waters' (is that it Kelley?). A lot of older Thompson hybrids can be found almost everywhere. The newer ones are probably only at Kartuz.

I really like Thompson's upright jointed rhizomes. Here are a few.

'Mr. Hunt'

'Janet Brown' (at The Gazebo).

Beautiful.

Are those your begonias? hcmcdole


I can see I'm gonna have to head over to the plant trading forum, and make a list, see if I can trade for some of Brad thompson's begonias, they are beautiful

The first two were at Kartuz (along with Kell and Lali) and the last one was at The Gazebo (Mike Flaherty's place).

I did pick up some of the upright jointed rhizomes at Kartuz and the plant sale. 'Little Brother Montgomery' and 'Connie Boswell' are the parents of some of these newer hybrids.

Here is 'Connie Boswell' from a couple of years ago.
