Begonias and Gesneriads Conservatory

Begonias and Gesneriads have undeniable ornamental qualities.

These magnificent plants come from tropical and sub-tropical regions.

Begonias are appreciated mainly for the beauty of their many-colored and textured foliage in all its varied forms.

Gesneriads are plants greatly valued for their brilliantly colored blooms. The best-known members of the family are doubtless African violets, but visitors will also be entranced by the columneas and lipstick plants, hanging varieties with flamboyant tubular flowers.

To the delight of enthusiasts, these collections are continuously being enriched by new specimens, some quite rare.
