Fibrous begonias

Question

I live in Northern California and have a large bed off fibrous begonias. Can I cut them to the ground before the first hard frost without losing them the following growing season?

Answer 1

You will need to lift the plants and put them in pots to bring indoors for winter.
Begonias will not survive temperatures below freezing.
