Begonia Garden!

This Saturday members of the RI Branch of the ABS planted a begonia garden at the botanical center at Roger Williams Park, Providence, RI. All the plants were donated by members to surround the 'Yuletide' camellia that was already there. The begonia information will be given to the docents so that people on the tour will be able to appreciate the variety of sizes, shapes and colors that were planted. The donations ranged from heirloom plants to cell packs of wax begonias that somehow never got planted in the spring (you know how that goes). Future expansion calls for miniature begonias in a large terrarium. It is so exciting for our members to have a spot to showcase the plants we hold dear! If you are planning a visit to New England be sure to stop by the botanical center and enjoy the largest display of carnivorous plants north of Atlanta as well as the newest garden... a bountiful begonia display!
