Begonia elatior ‘Betulia Mixed’ Description

Begonia elatior ‘Betulia Mixed’ is a selection of compact, bushy begonias with glossy green foliage and abundant flowers in varied colours. Individual shades will differ because the plants are supplied as a mix. The strong branching habit creates a full, rounded plant that flowers continuously from spring into autumn and generally sheds spent blooms without extensive deadheading. Grow indoors in bright indirect light or outdoors during summer in a sheltered position with partial shade. Keep the compost evenly moist but never saturated and feed regularly while flowering. The plants are frost tender and cannot remain outdoors through an Irish winter. They may be kept as houseplants if provided with warmth, good light and careful watering.
