I waa planning on spending today Sarurday in the garden sorting out all my pots getting the garden ready for next year, a lot of my plants were starting to look tired and wilted.
I went out thinking a bit sad saying goodbye to my first flower garden. When I got outside my garden surprised me again with a lot new flowers and buds, its still going strong, probably because I did start my Garden late.
Looks like I will have to put the cleaning away for a later date, still living and loving my garden.
Thank you @son-of-satire
Thank you @artedellavita
They love you so much they don't want to leave! Make sure you dig up your begonia corms/tubers so you can replant them next spring <3
Ohhh tell me more. What have I got to do?
Remove plant from pot before hard frosts occur. Cut back most of the top of the plant, leaving the ball of roots and soil intact. Place in a dry, cool storage area and allow the tubers to cure for several weeks.
What do I store them in,what does cures mean then What do I do. Told you I was new to gardening lol
No problem, this is a great article and It'll tell you what to do in your planting zone http://www.bradsbegoniaworld.com/tuber.htm

Your flowers will probably go strong until the first frost. And good advice about the tubers from @artedellavita
I have learned something new from @artedellavita and got my fingers crossed we dont have any frost :)

Maybe winter will forget all about the north of England this year huh?
