Last year I posted pictures from the Gazebo Begonia Show of Paul's Tuberous Begonias (click the link take you to last year's post). Gazebo Plants and Flowers didn't have a show this year since the begonia convention was being held in San Diego. Mike Flaherty of Gazebo Plants & Flowers and Paul Carlisle decided to put their energy into preparing and showing their plants at the convention. They made the convention and won many awards, good job guys! I will post some pictures at a later date from the convention.
However I couldn't wait to post these pictures! Today we took a road trip up to Paul's home in Los Osos, California and saw the most spectacular begonias. Paul is an incredible begonia grower who focuses all of his energy into growing incredible award winning tuberous begonias. Paul only grows tuberous begonias and he does it very well! He has a true talent and you can see it in the following pictures.
