can we grow tuberous begonia from seeds?

[@kathleenmurphy2379]

I guess as long as you have viable seeds you can grow any begonia from seed. I have some angel wing begonias letter setting seed I crossed with whatever other angel wing begonias had male or female beads to pollinate... That's how they get so many different kinds of begonias. I'm sure you're tuberous begonias we'll have female and male flowers that you can pollinate the female flowers with if the insect pollinators don't get the job done. I just took a little cosmetic brush or the male flower and robbed the Cosmetic brush on the male flower to get the pollen on the brush to put on the female flower or I rubbed the male flower against the female flower... The female flower has an extra little bit behind the flower that's the ovary that has the seeds that need to be fertilized inside. The male flower it's just petals and stamen and there's nothing but a stem behind the flower.

I think the full grown begonia he's showing he grew from seed is a tuberous begonia

20c sounds to cold? 25 should be better?
