Begonia - Spectrum Bavaria

Dec 29th, 2008 by Online Nursery Advisor | 0

The Begonia Spectrum Bavaria, ‘Begonia x hybrida’, are wonderfully floriferous plants that are at home in the garden, or in patio containers. This begonia is a cross between the winter flowering Begonia socotrana, and the summer flowering tuberous types of begonias. The Spectrum Bavaria begonias are distinguished by their large, double flowers that are a rose pink in color. These very vigorous Spectrum Begonias are excellent in porch boxes and hanging baskets. In cool or wet climates, consider growing your Spectrum begonias on a patio or in porch boxes. These plants perform best when soil temperatures are above 60-?F and when planted in flowerbeds. They should not be subjected to more than -+ day of sun as they will not tolerate a full sun location. Too much shade however, may cause the plants to become soft and less prolific in bloom.
