Hi there are these bulbils that have fallen off on the ground around my hardy begonias...... should I just rake them into the soil or pot them up and bring them inside/outside etc. ???? :)
I can't grow the hardy begonias in my climate, but I believe someone on that thread mentioned that the ones started indoors have a head start on the ones that come up in the garden. So, no, you don't have to.
I just leave them in the dirt around the parent plants - after a couple of years you can have a clump of over 100 plants - I dig and pot some of the bigger bulbs each spring for local plant sales. I have both grandis, and the white flowered form, also a hybrid called B. Torsa that has HUGE leaves to 2 ft across. bob
