My Grammie begonia (so named because the original slip came to us from my mother’s mother), is actually blooming. It’s a foliage begonia, and I’ve only had one bloom one other year for me (in the ten years I’ve had one in the house – this one is a slip of the older one that originally bloomed). I assume they probably bloom just as often in their native habitat as the begonias we buy for the flowers, but it’s different enough here for a special notice.
