Begonia Rex 'Escargot'?
 
Hello

I am wondering if anyone knows where I might be able to buy a Begonia
Rex 'Escargot' by mail order? Or if anyone knows of any plant nurseries
in the London area which might have them available?

Thanks in advance

Ruth

Ruth, if you get some info about mail ordering Escargot, please do let
me know. Ours died off last winter - I've been hunting for a source for
some time now as well. Good luck.

No joy so far I'm afraid - if I find a source I'll drop you a line!

All the best...

Thanks Ruth. I'll keep looking too ... meanwhile, the following site
has loads of begonias, but not the missing Escargot.
http://www.stbegonias.com/
There's one called China Curl, which is sort of the same? I'm about to
email them to see if they can help with the Escargot hunt. Will keep
you posted.

Hi Susie, yes it is similar but not quite the same - I spotted that one
too!

I'm about to
email them to see if they can help with the Escargot hunt. Will keep

Fab - yes, I'm still hunting around as well - I'll keep you posted if I
find it :)
