Just wonder whether I can plant my begonia tubers outdoor? I have got some in small pots on the window still and some are sprouting & some nothing is happening yet. I have put a few in a large container outside and intend to bring container in if there is frost. Thanks

    I recently bought some begonia tubers and at present I've got them on a windowsill waiting for them to start shooting.

    The instructions I got with them say: As the tubers shoot, grow on at a slighty warmer temp of approx 21 - 24 degrees and protect from stron sunlight until they become established.

    I'm going to wait until at least mid May before I plant them out after I've hardened them off for a week or so.
