Description

A delicate, small-flowered, single begonia, classier than all the rest and exceptionally long flowering. As a tuber, like dahlias, you can store these from one year to the next.

Care Tips

Water regularly during dry periods but avoid wetting the foliage. Lift and store tubers before the first frosts arrive, store them in compost or sand somewhere dry and dark, a shed or garage is ideal. Plant out the following spring.
