Begonia Tuberous 'Illumination' Salmon
Availability: Out of stock
Begonia 'Illumination Salmon' is a graceful trailing variety that produces a cascade of soft salmon-pink, double flowers from early summer right through to the first frosts. Its ruffled blooms bring a warm, pastel touch to hanging baskets, window boxes, and tall pots, where they spill beautifully over the edges. Set against green foliage, the flowers form a long-lasting, eye-catching display that brightens shaded corners and adds depth to summer arrangements.
Â
Plant in part shade or full shade in moist, well-drained compost. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist and feed every two weeks with a high-potash fertiliser to maintain flowering. There's no need to deadhead, as the plant is self-cleaning. Combine with trailing fuchsias or silver-leaved foliage for a soft, romantic look.

Supplied in approx. 10.5cm pots.
