A very free-flowering begonia, also suitable for indoors, with hanging, small orange flowers that are reminiscent of those of the Christmas cactus. Naturally, it's a type for pots and containers. We supply the traditional giant tubers, which provide enormous growth power. Height: 30-40 cm with 10-50 cm "overhang". Begonia flowers are edible and have a sparkling taste!
A diligent bloomer for the summer. Likes humus-rich soil and partial shade, in winter the tubers should be overwintered frost-free in dry peat moss.
