Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Here's another Logee's exclusive hybrid from Logee's third generation owner and horticulturist, Byron Martin. 'Tie Dye' is a standard rex with deep red spirals in the leaves. The spirals are tight turns and the leaves carry that classic tie-dye look with its red and green markings. This new hybrid tends to have less of a winter dormancy than other rex begonias.
