Begonia 'Nonstop Mixed'

Description How to Grow More Info Delivery Reviews Video

Begonia 'Nonstop Mixed' is a very apt name for the remarkable flowering habit of this variety which can be relied upon to continue producing its bright, weather-resistant blooms throughout the summer and into early autumn. With little maintenance they will reward you with large, showy flowers in mixed colours including red, orange, pink, yellow and white. Use them in hanging baskets, in pots, containers and at the front of the garden border, then simply sit back and enjoy the show. Height and spread: 30cm (12").

Plant begonias in small pots or trays in moist compost from February to March. Grow on in a warm, frost free position. Garden Ready plug plants can be planted straight out in the garden provided that there are no forecasts of frost.

When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise begonias to outdoor conditions over a 7 to 10 day period. Transplant begonias into containers or beds and borders, in any well drained soil. Choose a sunny or semi shaded site for their final position. Feed and water plants frequently. Deadhead faded begonia flowers to encourage more blooms to be produced. When stems blacken with first autumn frost, remove tubers from their containers. Wash and dry the tubers then store over winter in peat or sand, in a cool but frost free position. Replant begonia tubers in February or March for another outstanding display!
