This live demonstration of leaf, stem and divisions will simplify propagating begonias using proven methods. Buxton members Cindy and Ginger are knowledgeable propagators who can answer your questions while showing you what supplies are needed and how to do it. From the time and patience needed, to clean tools and labels, to your own baby begonias a few months later. It’s fun, it’s simple, it’s for you!
Begonia Intensive – Tovah Martin
No wonder begonias are so popular, they boast impressive diversity. There’s something for everyone in the begonia kingdom and they make great houseplants. Without straying from this family, you could grow a plant so tiny that it fits easily into a snug terrarium or you could host a specimen so sizable that it fills the corner of a room. This lecture profiles that range of physical characteristics while also sharing the secrets for hosting begonias successfully in your home. We will define the different groups of begonias and identify the easiest begonias to entertain, as well as discuss propagation techniques and troubleshooting. The goal is to demystify begonias and put this fascinating family of plants into everyone’s reach.
