Product description
Begonia Orange Cascade is a vibrant tuberous perennial renowned for its abundant double orange flowers that bloom profusely from June until October. These eye-catching blooms create a striking display in hanging baskets and containers, adding a bold splash of color to any garden setting.
Thriving in full sun or partial shade, Begonia Orange Cascade prefers moist but well-drained, humus-rich soil. Regular watering during dry spells and feeding with a balanced fertilizer will promote healthy growth and abundant flowering. Its trailing habit makes it ideal for hanging baskets, where its cascading blooms can be fully appreciated.
As autumn approaches and temperatures drop, it's essential to lift the tubers before the first frost. After drying, store them in a cool, dark, frost-free location to ensure they remain viable for replanting in the following spring. With proper care, Begonia Orange Cascade will continue to enhance your garden with its stunning orange blooms year after year.
