Begonia x tuberhybrida 'Apricot Shades Improved' F1 Hybrid

Begonia plugs can be planted straight into flower pouches but are best potted on first and grown on in bright, frost-free conditions if they are to be displayed in baskets, window boxes, pots and beds. Begonia plants can be transplanted into their final containers once they have increased in size. When all risk of frost has passed, acclimatise begonia plants to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days, before placing them in their final positions. Choose a sunny or semi shaded position that is protected from strong winds.

Feed and water plants frequently throughout the growing season taking care not to over-water, as this will cause new begona flower buds to drop. Deadhead the single female begonia flowers to encourage more of the large double male flowers to be produced and to extend the flowering period.

   Brilliant

   By Shirley Wiltshire 30-09-2012

   Every plug plant grew and developed into very sturdy plants. They produced a blaze of colour that brightened up our garden even on the dreariest of summer days. Everyone who visited us commented on how lovely our wall and hanging baskets looked. I will certainly be ordering more of the same for next year emailed

   Stunning!

   By Denise Doherty 15-09-2012

   Although they took a while to grow to a flowering size, they are now stunning. The colours blend so well together and the size of each individual flower is fantastic. They are certainly eye catching and have done so well considering the amount of rain we have had this year. I will definitely be ordering again for next year.
