Hi all,
I grew Tuberous Non-stop Begonias in containers for the first time this year and I loved them! I would like to overwinter them inside. I do not have room to just bring them in and put them at a bright window - too many houseplants, plus I have 12 good sized plants to bring in. Can I force them into dormancy and just store the rhizomes/tubers/roots(?) until next spring? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks, Cindy

I would wait till the first frost myself.Then just cut back the leave and dig up the bulbs and store them in a cool dry place till next spring.I start my in the house in March and then move them out in late May.
