Bégonia flora

À propos

Je suis Virginie, fleuriste, et les bégonias sont ma passion. Tout a commencé par une visite au jardin botanique de Montréal lorsque j'ai vu un merveilleux spécimen de Begonia puthoensis. C'était un coup de foudre. J'adore le nombre d'espèces qui existent et la variété de formes, de motifs et de tailles. 

When I first started collecting, I found it extremely hard to find rare species here in Canada.  It was inconceivable not to be able to find more than 5-6 species when there exist so many! So I started buying from other countries, only to find out that sometimes these kinds of imports were not encouraging responsible conservation practices for these rare plants in their native habitat. After realizing that a plant I bought might have been poached in the wild, I felt I had the responsibility to inform myself better. Trade with other collector and local purchases are great options for sharing the species and preventing poaching.  

I made my mission to produce begonias in Canada and to make these specimens available to everyone, while helping conservation in their native habitats.

J'utilise des méthodes de production durables comme la réutilisation des matériaux d'expédition, des pots en plastique et en alimentant mes plantes en engrais organique seulement.
