Using Terrariums to Force Begonias Indoors

Starting begonias indoors is a great way to satisfy your craving for gardening and ensures you will have containers full of blooms when it warms up and is time to decorate your outdoor space.

Begonias are spring planted tubers that grow and bloom into upright or hanging flowers (depending on the variety you choose). They are perfect in your garden beds, walkway borders and containers.
