Brilliant begonias



I’ve been bowled over by the exuberance of some outdoor begonias from the Dutch company, Beekenkamp, which I’ve been trialling this summer.  They’ve been amazing, flowering prolifically and coping with a wide variety of weather conditions, from chilly and wet to a scorching 32’+. 
I have two varieties, Waterfall (above) and Beauvilia, which arrived as good-sized plugs in May, and quickly expanded to grace pots and hanging baskets. I'll be trying to somehow keep them going  through the winter.

The Beekenkamp begonia collection is available on the internet from www.bloomingrand.com
