Begonias at Ace Hardware. Found these at the local hardware/garden center while shopping. The best part was no strong wind to deal with!

Jack, thanks! I will buy some, I promise. But, we are due for more snow again.

Thank you, Jools. They were a strong orange, but, rich too. Perhaps, I added a touch too much contrast.

Patrip, Thank you!

Rense, Thanks, these are one of my favorites, there was pink ones too.

Jheu02, glad you like it! It does have some strong colors. On things like this with strong contrast, I worry that it will be too dark or too light and not be as I intended.

Karen, Well it did have some strong colors. Too strong? Glad you think it looked good.

Not too strong for my taste, looks a bit like they are glowing.
