That's a pretty one, Tara. I love the ones with the jaggedy leaves like that. Not cooler here yet, David, but maybe a tad drier anyway. C'mon coolth!

I got this one as a cutting last fall, and because the leaves are not huge, I thought it would stay a fairly small plant . . . Yeah Right! It's a bushy 3ft. tall and wide, and outgrew its pot a couple of months ago. I really must get busy fixing it up, and dividing it. B. Maurice Amy

This one really does stay a smaller size. B. Don Miller. I love the look of the leaves, like they have snow on them.

Here are a couple more, first is B. Carolina de Lucerna which I think is going to be huge. The big leaf is nearly a foot long and it has very large flowers for a begonia, too. Second is a shot of the B. Odorata alba so you can get an idea of the size. The basket is 22in. I've pruned this puppy twice this season, too!
