    How do I stunt a begonia boliviensis without killing it?

    Definitely worth propagating! I'd do the cuttings method. Then when you've got lots, and have set up a begonia shop online, you can be brave and chop up the corn!

    We love our Lakeland airfryer - one big drawer with a removable divider. Bought silicon dishes which are dishwasher-proof to save on the mess.
