Planting and Maintenance Tips:

To achieve large, early blooms, it is recommended to start the bulbs indoors and transplant them outside after the danger of frost has passed. When planting, ensure the hollow (knobby) side of the bulb is facing up, just below or at soil level, while the round side should be facing down. Begonias prefer warm, humid conditions, so it is essential to keep the soil moist but not overly wet for optimal growth.

These begonias are perfect for adding color to shaded areas of your garden, patio, or balcony. Their vibrant blooms will attract attention and create a stunning visual impact, making them an excellent choice for both novice and experienced gardeners.
