    I started the seeds in February. It took quite a while for them to germinate. Be patient, stick with them and start in Jan or Feb.

    Begonia Seeds - Dragon Wing Red

    Too difficult to grow the microscopic seeds. Only two of the 2 dozen I planted sprouted after many weeks, and they took many weeks more to grow, and certainly will not be of any use this growing season. Best to buy the plants at a nursery.... I would not try this again.
