Description
Let your patio, window boxes, containers and pots bring the colours of summer right up close and personal. Choose a mix of the exotic Begonia 'Samba' varieties with their large fully double blooms that can measure up to 15 cm (6 inch) in diameter, and it will keep you in colour and pleasure most of the summer. Begonia 'Samba' is as flashy as the Brazilian dance it’s named after and the costumes the dancers wear, and will add an exotic touch to your patio. The colours of the blooms are reminiscent of tropical fruit, with melons, pineapples and coconut right there in the mix.
The Begonia 'Samba' flowers do like partial shade, but are easy to grow and long-flowering.
