I've always had a garden. I enjoy a challenge! I love the rewards when it all comes together. And I learn something new nearly every day. Perfect 🌻

My hanging basket grown from 8 free Begonia corms from J Parkers - free with my petunia Night Sky. I'm delighted with this freebie 😄

Hello Susan @Susanandsteve They took a bit of time to sprout. I nearly gave up on them. I placed the corms on compost and seed compost mix with the tops not buried. I kept them in a plastic growhouse until they had decent sized leaves then hung them outside in a sheltered spot to bring them on. I fed them seaweed extract every couple of weeks. Was a bit of a faff but worth it!
