Love Begonia!! I am trying to prop Angel wings
What gorgeous choices! Those are some beautiful colors and look like they will make some beautiful new plants; can’t wait to see them when they root! 🀩
@Idplantthat the mother plant is like a giant. It’s this huge hanging basket. I’ve never seen such a huge begonia with such huge leaves
@nellz4estfairyz oooh! 😲 Do you have pictures and some pointers on how to get such beautiful leaves πŸƒ? I definitely need that help. πŸ€£πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ
@Idplantthat yes, go to a green house and buy a healthy begonia, lol, because I’m actually not great at keeping them in my home. This one actually is listed as a begonia Rex Jurassic watermelon.! so it’s not just an accident that the leaves are this big. This is a special variety that grows huge leaves. And this is potted up in a giant hanging basket, which should do pretty well under my gazebo in my backyard where there is a bit of shade and dappled sunlight in the afternoon. It gets very humid here throughout the summer.
@Idplantthat here is the mother plant it’s so big you can’t even see the hook for the top of the hanging basket.
@Idplantthat here is better pictures to show the size.
@nellz4estfairyz oh my goodness! Those are GORGEOUS! I mean so GORGEOUS! That mother is a big girl! I can’t get over it, I love it. πŸ₯° Have you ever bought any begonias on Etsy? I found this seller I seriously love; they’ve got beautiful begonias and sell the Jurassic ones πŸ˜‰ I have a crack’in rose and a spotted one in windows in my house, but their leaves aren’t as full or lush as yours πŸ₯°
This is propagated; my little newbie. The second is my cracking rose πŸ˜‰
@Idplantthat I love those! What is the first one called? It looks like my gryphon.
@nellz4estfairyz I’ve been trying to figure which one that one is… I think it’s either a Cowardly Lion or a Geometry, but honestly I’m not sure… I put two that looked so alike and I just didn’t have labels. I gotta stop doing it. πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€£
