Unnamed begonia hybrid, a heartbreaking beauty (June 2012)
I hope to (eventually) blog about some of my successes with begonia breeding, but for now I'm going to describe one of my failures. The plant in the above photo is one of my own hybrids, photographed in my garden in June 2012, from a cross I made in 2011. I call it a "beautiful failure" because it ultimately failed several critical tests, and as of 2013 I'm no longer growing it at all.
