I think I’m changing my mind about begonias. I’ve never really liked them, but first there were the bright orange ones in the tin bath, and now these, still soldiering on in November and creating a splash outside the Lamb & Flag pub.
That’s not a miniature woman that you can see underneath the hanging basket – she’s an ordinary sized one, walking through the alleyway that leads on to Floral Street.
Do you know the name of the begonia because I would like to try and grow them next summer?
Hi Miriam – I’m not good on begonias, but maybe it’s this one? http://www.plantmenow.co.uk/plants/bedding/begonia-starter-plants/begonia-supercascade-pink-bicolour.aspx or this one, although it looks a darker pink? http://www.thompson-morgan.com/flowers/flower-plants/begonia-plants/begonia-crackling-fire-pink/p94162TM
It looks a lot like ‘illumination pink’.
Thanks James! I just should have asked you first : )
