Yes, welcome back !

Carol!!! So much to look at...you must spend all your time working and it's worth it. The begonia looks great - mine get a little wilted also, and I just cut them back. I'm postiing a pic of the cuttings I just stuck in the ground last year. They are without a doubt, my favorite plant. Aside from broms and yours look great. All for now, Hester

I didn't fertilize until about a week after I put them out into the garden, and at that point, I used a diluted fish emulsion every other week on them. When they first started to bloom I applied the Fox farm happy frog granular organic fert as a slow release that should get them through the rest of the summer just fine. Also they are mulched with grass and shredded leaves so I imagine as those are slowly breaking down and being eaten by earthworms, they are adding small amounts of nutrients as well. I'll see how this works. If I need to add one more application of the granular organic fert in like the middle of August I will, but for now I think I'm all set. CH
