PRODUCT DETAILS
Red Begonias are wonderful for mass plantings, bedding and will bloom all summer long. They are also great for containers and hanging baskets.
Resistant to heat and drought, begonias will flourish in shaded areas where few other plants will bloom.
Begonia plant works well in fertile, well-drained soil, rich in humus, neutral to slightly acid, partly shaded or well-lit, but out of direct sunlight.
