Need help with tuberous begonia ID

Hi,
Was wondering if someone could be so kind and let me know the name of the begonia that is featured in the Logees holiday 2005 catalog on p.19. It is in the picture with the 'Window Garden Pot & Sconce Set'. I contacted them, however they could not tell me more then that it is a tuberous begonia. I would include this picture in my post, but am not sure if I'm allowed.
Thank you in advance for your help,

| To help identify this begonia, a picture will probably help. Is this the begonia you are talking about ?
Link here ?? Sorry, I don't have the name, but hopefully someone else can help. |

| I was sure when I saw this last night I had seen that begonia with an identification, but I couldn't find it on their website or elsewhere. Then this morning my eye fell on the Logee catalog, and there it was. Why it's not on the website, and why they would fail to identify it properly when you asked, is beyond my understanding. Anyway--it is B. 'Tea Rose'. From the picture I would guess it to be a 'trailing-scandent', and the description says it will 'flower profusely year around' and when given high humidity and heat a 'rich yet sweet fragrance greets the senses.' Sound like a good one for down here! I'm increasingly frustrated with Logee's--seems like their prices go up and the number of offerings decrease with every new listing. But I suppose it's worth the price to encourage them to continue offering at least some! |
