Default Begonia Winter care?

The Gunnera is definitely in autumn mode.


Mine has been looking miserable all Summer. I planted it in the dampest
part of the property where the soil is usually wet. However it baked
hard and the plant sulked. It has picked up over the last month or two
with all the rain - just in time to die down for Winter. It was doing so
well in Spring too. I bought it in a 5" pot three years ago and it
spreads about 6 feet wide 6 feet high now :-) ... when it isn't sulking.
