Description
The Hanging Basket Begonias form smaller flowers than the upright type, but many more of them. A well-fertilized basket with several bulbs will be a true spectacle by mid-summer on your shady front porch.
Hanging tuberous begonias thrive in the shade and bloom all summer long. These beauties produce an abundance of colorful blooms. Tuberous begonias add lavish color in shady spots under trees, in gardens and in containers. Tuberous begonias are hardy in zones 8-10 and considered annuals in zones 3-7.
