ABS Convention - Tour of Steve's Leaves!

 One of the excursions at the American Begonia Society Convention was a tour of Steve's Leaves.  Their greenhouses are not open to the public and they do not have a retail store. Ordering is only available online.  It was a treat to see where and how they grow their begonias and other plants.  I was amazed to see so many plants in their greenhouses.  You can click on their logo below for a link that will take you to their online store.

Here are some of the leaf cuttings

Here is a small plant growing from the leaf cutting.  It will soon be in someone's begonia collection.

The following pictures are just some of the many begonias at Steve's Leaves.

Steve's Leaves grows more than just begonias.

Here are a few orders they are preparing to ship out.

Fort Worth Texas Botanic Garden

     The American Begonia Society Convention was in Fort Worth Texas.  Here are a few pictures of the garden before we saw the begonia show and begonia collection.  Of course we checked out the begonias on display in Garden Center before heading out!
