RE: Begonias for baskets

in #begonia6 years ago

Wax begonia, the more popular variety of begonia, can be found in sizes to fit just about any space (from as small as 6 inches to nearly 3 feet tall). The larger varieties are ideal for landscaping, and when planted en masse create a dramatic effect. Smaller begonia varieties are well-suited for container gardens, and they won't crowd out your other plants.

Flower shapes are just as diverse as begonia plant sizes. Some plants showcase single flowers with just one row of petals, while others have double blooms with numerous rows of petals.

In the past, begonia color choices were generally limited to green or bronze foliage with white, pink, or red flowers. But today, begonia colors are much more diverse.

In the wax family alone, you'll find multiple shades in the white to red spectrum. And in the begonia boliviensis family, there are even more options, including warm yellows, reds, oranges, whites, and pinks. Begonias look gorgeous in window boxes!
