Begonia ‘Assorted’ – 180MM
I am Assorted Begonia. My family originated from Central and South America
| I am a selection of low growing fleshy perennial plants with vibrant foliage in a broad range of colours and showy brightly coloured flowers.
I am well suited to add colour to shaded locations including indoors. I usually flower from spring to autumn but some of my varieties can flower all year if the right conditions are met. I am easy to grow and collecting my varieties can become addictive. |
