Know before you buy
Yes, but they require specific conditions. You must keep the soil temperature between 70-75°F and ensure the seeds are not covered, as they require light to germinate.
You can expect to see germination within 7 to 10 days, provided the soil temperature is maintained in the optimal range.
These begonias prefer partial sun. While they are bred for strong garden performance, they will perform best when protected from the intense heat of direct, all-day sunlight.
Pelleted seeds are coated in a smooth, uniform material that makes them easier to handle and sow precisely, which is especially helpful for small seeds like begonias.
They are ideal for containers 4 inches or larger. Because they have a tall, rounded habit, they look best in pots that allow their bronze foliage and rose flowers to stand out.
No, this variety is bred to naturally maintain a tall, rounded habit. You should see a consistent shape without the need for extensive pruning.
