Begonia semperflorens

These neat, mounded plants are perfect in strawberry jars, window boxes, and containers as well as flower beds. The dark-leafed variety is especially sun tolerant and needs plenty of light to develop the pretty leaf color. Our green-leaf Dragon Wing variety is for shade. Expect free-flowering masses of color from each.

Begonias need rich soil that should dry slightly between deep waterings. Those in sun will need more water. Space plants 9 inches apart.

Some Bonnie Plants varieties may not be available at your local stores, as we select and sell varieties best suited to the growing conditions in each region.
