The ultimate summer bedding plant, begonias bloom for months on end, producing flowers in a range of colours, shapes and sizes. They’re commonly used for filling gaps at the front of the border and are perfect for growing in baskets and pots.
Begonia ‘Glowing Embers’ bears fiery, orange flowers in contrast with dark purple-bronze foliage. Plants have a compact, semi-cascding habit, making them a good choice for pots and hanging baskets. ‘Glowing Embers’ thrives in full sun to shade. For best results keep plants well watered, and feed fortnightly with a high-potash fertiliser to prolong flowering.
