Begonia 'Pendula': All summer long, the pendulous stems of these spectacular trailing begonias are smothered by enormous double flowers. Begonia 'Fringed (Fimbriata) Mixed'—Throughout the summer, sturdy plants produce vibrant blooms with crimped edges that resemble large carnations. These lovely fringed begonias in a variety of vibrant colours are ideal for making a striking display in beds, window boxes, and patio containers. Begonia 'Non-Stop Mixed': Fully double flowers in a rainbow of colours contrast sharply with the rich, chocolate-colored foliage.

From July to October, large, cascading, double blooms will pour from your containers. All summer and well into autumn, you'll be able to enjoy gorgeous flowers in apricot and orange that reach 6–10 cm (2.5–4") in diameter. These tuberous begonias will thrive in any weather and can be grown in full sun or partial shade.

Growing Information

Begonia plants can be planted directly into their final containers and grown in bright, frost-free conditions. Plugs can be planted straight into flower pouches but are best potted on first if to be displayed in baskets, window boxes or pots. They can be transplanted into their final containers once they have increased in size. When all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise Begonia Apricot Shades to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days, before placing them in their final positions. Choose a sunny or semi shaded position that is protected from strong winds.
