Just wanted to show pictures of the cuttings I take off of my plants when I sell them on ebay. Right now I am selling Begonia cuttings on ebay. I don’t know when I will sell episcia cuttings; maybe next spring in 2013.

Another beautiful pink/mauve leaved episcia. I just love the episcias with the quilted mauve leaves; they are so much easier to grow then the other pink episcias like cleopatra, pink brocade etc… Below is a picture of  Ruby Red Dress a must have episcia.

The name of this episcia is Silver Skies it has silver tiny leaves and it is considered a miniature episcia. It is so cute and so easy to grow. Don’t let the picture fool you. This episcia can grow into a very large plant!

Angel Wing Begonia Tia Maria

I purchased this Angel Wing Begonia in San Antonio in May 2012 at the Southwest Begonia Get together. I have many white blooming Angel Wing Begonias but I had to have this one because it is called Tia Maria. That is my Aunts name; Maria. She use to love to come over and look at my begonias and episcias. She couldn’t grow house plants, but with my help she grew beautiful Begonias and episcias on her patio. She is no longer with us and I miss her very much.

This begonia blooms sprays of white flowers. The leaves are light green with lots of white spots. It is growing in my back yard underneath the trees.

Angel Wing Begonia Southern Spirit

This begonia blooms peach/orange flowers. The leaves are light green with white spots. I purchased this one in Dallas at one of the Southwest begonia get togethers. Very pretty flowers and easy to grow.

Angel Wing Begonia Chameleon

What an unusual flower! I was told the flower of this cactus attracted flies! The flower also sticks! Smells like something died. But if you can tolerate the smell it is a gorgeous flower! As you can see in this picture the flies love it!
