I'm a huge begonia fan and so happy to see your begonia collection😍👌begonias are so underrated!
Thanks Cassie - yeah I agree! Begonias are definitely misunderstood in the UK that's for sure. Maybe my videos will change a bit of that.🤷♂️
These are beautiful! What a wonderful collection. I added a few to my wish list! (Especially the Begonia Candy Queen!) Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Nancy - I'm glad you enjoyed them. There is a new Begonia video coming up soon.
Ive been getting into begonias in the last few months. One that has stunned me is begonia brevimosa, absolutely AMAZING coloration and a cane type too. You should give it a go
Yeah that's a lovely species. Another one for the wish-list!😁
@@Grow_Up_Man55 yesss, really excited to see how mine goes, would like to get a few cuttings so I can grow a full plant like with my maculata. . Thinking of ordering a few more types from dibleys
I’ve just found this video and the mazae nigricans is stunning ! That’s just moved to the top of my wish list ! Thanks for the tour Geoff 😊
Yeah it's a fab plant! I made a video all about it here: th-cam.com/video/bxktTXgbaGs/w-d-xo.html And by the way, that teeny tiny leaf on the Beg. 'Autumn Ember' ...it's growing!😁
@@Grow_Up_Man55 ooh thanks for the link, I’ll go watch it now. And Yeyy !!! That’s great , I’m really happy it’s made it !!
B. Connie Boswell just got added to my ever growing "wish list" :)
Yeah it's gorgeous isn't it? It was a recommendation to me from another subscriber.
Wow! Your first begonia, the begonia bowerae 'Tiger Paws' is just lovely. These are the types of begonias I prefer in my home, although I have cane begonias too. I am in the USA, and I just Subscribed to your channel. Thank you so much for this video. It was great!
Thanks Patrick I appreciate those comments. Yeah I agree - there are a few bowerae hybrids that are stunning. Look up Begonia bowerae 'zumba' - even better in my opinion and currently sitting in my kitchen!
Hi again, I'm watching more of your begonia videos....and waiting for the mail man to deliver a box of 2 begonias I order - cane variety, but I will look up "zumba". Hope it does'nt get to big. :)
@@Grow_Up_Man55
I really like begonias, I have a few. I love their leaves and color patterns. Videos about begonias are kind of rare, I enjoyed this one.
Thanks I'm glad you liked it. Begonias have so much going for them as a family - I think many people don't realise the existence of the various groups.
My remedy for fungus gnats and fruit flies is to invest in some drosera. I breed feeder bugs and feed them leftover veggies and fruits so fruit flies are always around until I picked up some drosera capensis. The flies are now all gone. Very effective. Natures bug catcher. It’s irresistible to them. 🙌🏻
Yeah I've lots of Drosera and Pinguiculas too - along with many Nepenthes - all help in reducing the fungus gnat population. And of course they're cool plants in their own right.
Honestly my favourite plant , i personally have always liked them but I didn’t quite understand how much variety the family has… I came across the ‘Bewitched’ variety at my work (Allensmore) and spent about 2/3 hours looking out for different varieties & my mind was repeatedly blown… there is something for everyone, and there’s some really striking varieties that stand out strong even amongst the prettiest of flowers.
AND , there usually always under £20.
Agreed!😁
I have a bowerae , that looks very similar to yours. Mine was labeled bowers black begonia ? And it is a bit darker in color than yours , but it’s one of my favorites. Your looks amazingly healthy.
I've seen one called Begonia bowerae 'Black Velvet', and also one called Begonia bowerae 'Nigra Magra' - both lovely Begonias and hybrids I'd love to have in my collection. Good luck with yours! 😁
Love all your begonia videos! 💜
I'm so glad! I think they're definitely underserved across TH-cam so I'm hoping to plug that gap.
Beautiful collection ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😊
love love love begonia videos! Sma's channel brought me to your channel and I've stuck around because of begonias and tradescantias!
Glad you're enjoying them Roxanne. Hopefully there'll more interesting stuff on those plants to come, providing I can keep thinking of things...😁
I love what you said in the beginning 😂 honestly, I have a few woodlark varieties & Spacestars avior & glowing & burning embers & one or two other types outside with literally knockout flowers , I’m too obsessed on begonias full stop , so I need ones outside.. 😂
But my inside collection… though the flowers aren’t crazy they are still attractive & either way… there foliage is outta this world 🔥
I do like some of the 'bedding' types - it's just that's all you ever see in the UK so many people over here think that's all there is to them.🤷♂️
@@Grow_Up_Man55 I agree , although I don't really see too many bedding types around locally for me , apart from the few houses around the garden centres that do have great ones on display. But yeah , many people think the family are limited to just pure green foliage or the typical plant your grandparents have.. 🤣 when there soooo much more than that
Always love a Begonia video. 😁
Who doesn't? (Actually Monty Don said that he hates Begonias last night on GW - but then proceeded to plant a tuberous one. Why do they think all Begonias are tuberous or semperflorens??) 😂
🎉Muy buen video , excelente , me encantó , bien identificadas y preciosas , una variedades preciosas y bien cuidadas , felicitaciones!!!!
¡Muchas gracias por tus amables palabras! Me alegra saber que te gustó tanto el vídeo y que aprecies el mimo que pongo en las variedades que presento. ¡Su apoyo significa mucho para mí!
Good video
I’d never have thought to buy one but bought a tiger paw one based on your video recently about top 5 plants and it’s thriving and looks great
Glad to hear it! Wait till you see Begonia melanobullata. The weirdest thing. I’ll make a video on it when I get back from my holidays.
Thought of you last weekend when I purchased a hanging begonia. Our local fire companies do a Easter plant sale as a fund raiser... and I couldn't resist to try my hand at it. Beautiful red blooms...I guess I have to identify it, but I want to try propagating it for fun. Thanks for the video!
I thought my ear was itching? (I'm not telling you if it was the left one or right - left for love - right for spite!😂) - Glad to hear you've joined the Begonia clan...😁
Great video! I'm keen on cane-type/shrub Begonias, such as B. 'Don Miller,' AKA 'Frosty,' and B. 'Aya.' The ones on my wishlist are B. 'Rayon Vert,' B. 'Green Gecko,' and B. burkillii 'Silver Edge.'
My collection also includes B. Mazae f. Nigricans, which I love; B. rex hybrid 'Indian Summer,' B. maculata 'Wightii,' and another cane-type, B. 'Dark Eyes.'
Thanks Allison. Yeah there are so many lovely ones that I haven't the space to grow them all. I've got Green Gecko and mazae - but none of the others you mentioned. Someone has very kindly just sent me a small cutting of Beg. 'Autumn Ember' which I've been looking for for ages!
I enjoyed this video. I just got my first begonia, interesting to see the varieties, they are lovely!
Thanks Nicole - they're great plants and unlike orchids have something to look at all year round. (I'm not 'dissing' orchids - I just sometimes get impatient waiting for something to happen!🤣)
Hi from Oregon
We must be on the same wavelength 😊
I just got an order yesterday for nine new begonias
Seven are rhizomatous two are cane.
Not sure what I was thinking 😊
I enjoyed your video. Good job!!
Thank you.
Karan🌲
Hi Karan. Sounds like a bargain to me - whatever you paid! One of the great things about them is that they're easy to keep to a manageable size - if you want to prune them or pull leaves off, you can. I hope they grow well for you.😁
Hi, I have a Black Mamba Rex that has large black leaves and does well outdoors or inside in the house. I love to see your begonias. I only have 4 but do love growing them!
Ooh I must look that one up! Glad to hear yours are doing well.😁
I bought a new rex begonia recently called Shadow King Strawberry Sherbet. It has splashes of lighter colour, and they sparkle in the light. I think you would really like it.
Oo yes that looks really nice! Almost like a Coleus.😁
@@Grow_Up_Man55 I never thought of that, but it is! I also love coleus.
This video was informative for me and gave me a new perspective. The begonia I am growing now is Begonia bowerae var. nigramarga and I thought it was simply a wild species from Mexico. However, the boundaries between wild species and garden plants are not so clear-cut and their study must be equally complex and difficult.
Anyway, I was also happy to see that listada,silver jewel, which are my 'current' top three favourite begonias, happened to be on the show. Thank you!
I'm really pleased you enjoyed it, Bryum. Begonia bowerae var. nigramarga does indeed appear to be a speices from Mexico - and was used to create many of the other eyelash Begonia hybrids. I'd love a few more of these varieties as I think they have much to offer. I hope you found other Begonias you liked too. I'm working on some videos of some recent purchases - really weird Begonias I think you'll love!
Amazing video Geoff, I always love begonia videos there doesn’t seem to be as many on TH-cam I look forward to seeing al the new types you are planning on bringing in, I have over 30 so far they are addictive, I think another plant to try would be coleus it has amazing colours and it would be good to see how it does over the winter too as is is supposed to be slightly difficult during winter. Thanks for the great video 🌱🪴
Glad you enjoyed it Nathan 😁. Sounds like you have quite a collection there - maybe you should start a Begonia channel...I did try coleus once but it didn't make it through the winter in the greenhouse. More sun needed - story of my life!
Hi Geoff, enjoyed your begonia tour! My fave was your Begonia mazae f. Nigricans (will have to look for that one) Thanks again for adding to my wish list 😉Looking forward to the propagation updates.
Haha yeah the ever changing and ever expanding wishlist! In my next video I go through the plants from my last 'wishlist' video that I actually bought. Turns out I bought more plants from subscribers' wishlists than from my own!🤣
Great video! I want to add some begonias to my collection, so this is exactly what I wanted to see. Do you have any thoughts about which begonias might do ok in a home environment? I don’t have a greenhouse…yet.
Thanks Janice! Funny you should bring this up - because my latest video is all about a Begonia that does really well in the low light of a house. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/bxktTXgbaGs/w-d-xo.html but any of the plants I grow in the Hothouse will do fine in a house.
Hi Geoff! I just might have to get one of those Luxurians and give them a try! Try mosquito dunks or bits in your watering cans, use it every watering even once you've got rid of them all. I've been using dunks for decades and it really works great. I have zero gnats.
Hey Tommy - you definitely should get one, it's a great plant. Funnily enough I just bought something similar to the Mosquito Bits from 'The Mosquito Company'. I was trying to be organic with the neem oil but after 5 weeks of spraying with it and watering with it - I still have fungus gnats - although not as many as before. I've now lost patience and am going down the chemical route. The Mosquito Bits you refer to are really expensive over here - £27 for a very small packet. (The dunks are well over £30 for half a dozen - although I might just have to cough up if these tablet thingies don't work!)
@@Grow_Up_Man55 WOW, that's a lot of money. The dunks over here are $10 for a 6 pack. I use one quarter of one in my watering can. It's BT so get some BT and add it to the watering can.
@@Tommyr What's 'BT"? I tried the tablets yesterday with the watering and also put some into the sprayer and so far so good - I didn't see a single flying gnat when I went in today so fingers crossed!
Do we have any variety called weeping bagonis?
Yes - a quick Google search shows one in India for sale.
Hi! Did you ever find out whether or not the begonia mazae var. nigricans was a cane or rhizome?
It has a thin, spreading rhizome but in growth habit it's quite shrubby. It's important to remember that the Begonia groups are very loose and not at all 'official' scientific classifications. Most people use the group names and descriptions that the American Begonia Society came up with!
@@Grow_Up_Man55 okay, thank you. I watched one of your other videos and was planning on propagating the end few leaves on a stem, for my son. I failed trying a leaf 🤭 cheers for your great videos!
@@eleanoresson869 Good luck with your props!
