Product Description
Hanging baskets and window boxes are the perfect sites for this unique, colorful Begonia. Its cascading habit creates a tumble-down effect with plenty of deep red double blooms spilling over the sides of the container all summer long. They look especially nice when paired with the Yellow Pendula Begonia or other lightly colored trailing plants. Begonias prefer a warm, humid environment, so it's important to keep them watered in well, though they do prefer soil with good drainage. Cold temperatures will signal the end of this brightly colored variety. If you live in zones 3-7, lift the bulbs in early fall and store in a frost-free area to be planted again next year. Deer resistant. Begonia pendula
