    Create a seed-bed style bed with a fine tilth and transplant them into it and cover with a cloche?

      Just get all the beds, containers or window boxes ready for when they arrive. The fact that you have a greenhouse to pop them into will give you time to plant them up gradually and not have to rush into it.
      Think of thr lovely display you will have all through the summer. ☺

      And when your back stops aching,
      And your hands begin to harden.
      You will find yourself a partner,
      In the glory of the garden.

                          I've bought from them before too - including strawberries and they've been great quality. The good thing is that there's no extra for p&p - so the price you see is what you pay. None of this hit you for an extra fiver at checkout business.

                            One other thing VC I have always found that tuberous begonias like to almost dry out then water from the bottom, ie, sit them in a tray of water leave them long enough to just dampen the top of the pot and remove, and try to keep the foliage dry as they are prone to damping off. You may grow them differently, I just hope this gives someone new to growing them a bit of a guide

                              They'll be rooted Begonias as the plugs are only about a half inch square.
