brought hanging begonia plants this year will they have tubers?

Answer 1

Tuberous begonias will divide on their own. When the foliage dies put them in a closet until next spring. When you begin watering them in the spring they will sprout leaves and grow.

If you have regular begonias you will not have tubers. You can take 6 - 8" cuttings of these, strip off lower leaves and put in clear containers of water. 1 - 2 weeks you'll have roots and have the option to leave them in water until spring or pot them.

Answer 2

There are tubular begonias then the more traditional kind. I bring my begonias and geraniums in for the winter. Right now my rooms look beautiful with all the flowering plants. In a week I'll have a mess of fallen flowers. They will go semi dorment and not flower for awhile. I feed them in January and in the grayness of a New Jersey winter we have flowers in February. You have to determine the kind of begonia, If you bring it in and it thrives it is your standard. If it dies it is tubular and you can remove it from the pot and wrap it in papers till next season. Like the Dahlia's.

My plants are monsters. And they do well with the sparse winter sun we get in Jersey. Good Luck

Answer 3

now may be the time to start the tubers off. you want a seed tray or container of damp time-honored purpose compost into which you bury the tubers 2" aside with the marvelous area or concave area only lined. Then placed them in a heat place including an airing cabinet at 18C. If this is cooler than that they are going to be slower to start. while they have sprouted and small leaves are showing pot them up in 5" pots of John Innes No.2. Harden them off in the direction of the tip of might in the previous transplanting into their very final place. Or relatively of person pots placed right this moment into the putting basket or container which you are going to be able to desire to maintain interior the warmth and harden off in the previous putting outdoors.
