Product description
Begonia Trailing Mixed Basket Plants is the perfect mix to bring a burst of colour into your garden. Their fully double flowers produce bright shades of orange, red and yellow, alongside lush, green foliage from early Summer. This gives them plenty time to show off and enhance any hanging baskets, flower beds, borders, pots or containers until the first frosts of the year.
The plants are easy to care for throughout the year and, if they're not already in flower when you receive them, it will only take a few weeks before they begin to flourish. Regular watering should be carried out and a feed every 2-4 weeks is also required.
You will receive a 6 pack of large Begonia plug plants at a garden ready size. They can be easily removed from their 100% recyclable tray, and then planted with very little fuss.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Water basket plants regularly, ensuring the soil stays moist but not waterlogged. Check daily in warm weather, as baskets dry out quickly. Water until it drains through, and avoid wetting leaves to prevent disease.

Choose a basket or bedding location with consistently good conditions, Use a lightweight, well-draining potting mix. Position plants evenly, leaving space to grow. Fill gaps with soil, firm gently, and water thoroughly after planting.
