Product Description

This stunning soft blend of rosy pink shades come highly recommended. The Splendide is a magnificent breed of pastel coloured cascading begonias, and Alifra is a delicate addition to the range that looks fabulous gently cascading from pots and hanging baskets on a bright summers' day. These begonias will flourish in partial shade so are a cheerful selection to brighten up those shady corners of the garden. These excellent top sized exhibition 5-6cm tubers can be lifted and stored over winter to be used year after year for added value. Spread 35cm.

Growing at a glance…

Plant your Begonia tubers in early spring, as long as all threat of further frosts has disappeared. Begonias are incredibly sensitive blooms and need to be protected from harsh cold weather. Tubers can be started indoors as early as February if the weather is too unpredictable. Plant hollow side up, 2cm apart and 2.5cm deep. When leaves begin to appear, plant outside in your desired spot that receives plenty of sunlight. Water regularly during warm and dry weather.
