Too wet I would say. The mix they sit on, not in, should be barely damp. When the little eyes show, then youcan pot them a little deeper. But remember, they will not tolerate being watered when they haven't really started growth.Experience is a good teacher,.

As you may have seen in my other recent post, I was able to overwinter all of my inexpensive begonia pots! Yay! Here are pictures of a couple of them; I have them all tucked in corners over the yard. The Dragonwing begonias overwintered nicely, too. I cut all of them back very hard in mid-to-late March and by mid-April, they look amazing. I also made a new hanging basket for my front porch using my same cheap method: I purchased two 6-packs of Vinca minor (Periwinkle) at Walmart - one white, one pink - for $1.82 x 2 = $3.64 and filled a large hanging basket leftover from a prior year purchase for my front porch. Takes a little time and sweat but the price sure beats the $12-15 ready-to-gos. Can't get a picture today in all of the rain but will get one over the weekend and post it. Carol in Jacksonville

Alison, If no one else wants the agave colorato will you put it aside for me please. Robyn

Thanks to this post I recognized them while at Bandara Rd. Rainbow Gardens in San Antonio. They only had two in half gal. pots priced at $5.95 and I got them both. The tag in the pot simply said 'Big Rose" and nothing else. They have the bronze leaf. The staff didn't seem to know anything about them, but said they'd be getting more in. I'm really happy to have them. There are two plants in the pot. Maybe I'll take some photos later. Will keep you posted on how they do in my part sun locations. I hope those looking for them will find them.
