Bought some stuff online back in June/July. 70 plants for a fiver or similar. Pot luck so you don't know what you're getting.

They arrived and they were the tiniest feeblest plants I've ever seen. Tempted to bin them but DH said to give them a chance. Well now look at them! Fab but I'm curious to know what they're called.

Begonias, tuberous probably.

Yes Begonias, in the Autumn lift them take off any green from the tubers and store them flat on a rack, in a dark place.
In the spring plant them up and keep them inside until the frost has past when they should be peaking through the soil ready to bloom again.
