spiral begonia escargot
Posted by anita (mymomma2@aol.com) from va on 2002-01-22 10:05:35

Is anyone familiar with the spiral begonia escargot? Saw one on a Martha Stewart segment and would like to use this lovely plant in centerpieces for a special party. Where can I get them? . . . propagate them . . . etc.
thanks in advance. Anita

    Anita: I know you can get them at Logees .....www.logees.com, but you do pay a price of about $8.00 per 2" pot. I just heard that some of the Wal Mart's are carrying these @ $2.57 each! You might want to check that out!
    Good luck....sounds like a creative and beautiful idea!
