I have about 3 dozen tuberous begonias in clay pots. For several years I have overwintered them by bringing the pots indoors and ceasing watering in late September. This year, however, 4 of them have begun to sprout now, in spite of no water. One of those four has sent up two very spindly shoots.
What should I do? Throw in the towel, start watering them and treat them like house plants til the summer? Snip off shoots as they appear (3 are now only buds breaking the earth)? Let them wither or thrive without watering?
TIA
