Product description
Begonia White Double is a charming tuberous perennial that forms a bushy, compact mound of bronze-green foliage. From summer through early autumn, it showcases clusters of double white flowers, creating an elegant display in garden beds, borders, or containers.
Thriving in partial shade, Begonia White Double prefers well-drained, fertile soil to support its vibrant blooms. Regular watering during dry periods and weekly feeding with a balanced fertilizer ensure optimal growth and flowering. Its versatility makes it suitable for shaded garden corners, patio pots, and even hanging baskets.
As the growing season ends and temperatures drop, lift the tubers before the first frosts. Allow them to dry and store them in a cool, frost-free location for replanting in spring. With proper care, Begonia White Double will reward gardeners with its elegant blooms year after year, adding brightness to shaded areas of the garden.
