    Begonias - Cascade type

    Go for whichever is available in the colours/varieties you want at a price that suits you. If you buy plug plants they should develop tubers that you can keep for subsequent years.

    It is 2f -16.6c. The guessers say we're going up to -6c 23f which will take out some of the crispiness.
