UK: Blooming begonias help Worcester grower retain his title
Mr Jones, from Bevere Close, also retained his seven-pot British Begonia Champion title after winning it three times in a row.
He has been growing begonias for the past 10 years and took around 36 pots with him to the show where he entered a variety of begonia classes.
The huge blooms are grown from five-year-old tubers which he keeps in individual 10-inch pots and overwinters in his garage.
"I was really pleased with the results. I took 36 pots along because there were several classes to enter, some seven pot, some three pot and some one pot and I did really well."
"I grow the giant flowered varieties. They are lovely flowers which last a long time."
