Seller: ALLIKASILM
About this product
Tuberous begonia Begonia Illumination Apricot – apricot-orange semi-double flowers. The stems arch and trail, so it makes a fine hanging-basket plant. Blooms generously from June until the autumn frosts and reaches about 25–30 cm. Suits balcony boxes, pots and the front of beds.
Start the tubers indoors in March–April, hollow side up, lightly covered with compost. Plant out after the last frosts (late May–early June) in half-shade, 25–30 cm apart. Water moderately, keeping leaves and flowers dry; feed every couple of weeks while flowering.
