Once they have increased in size, they can be transplanted into their final containers. Acclimatise Begonias to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days when all risk of frost has passed before placing them in their final positions. Select a sunny or semi-shaded spot protected from strong winds. Feed and water regularly throughout the growing season, being careful not to over-water, as this can cause new flower buds to drop. Deadhead faded flowers regularly to prolong the flowering period and encourage more blooms.Plant Size: Height up to 25cm (10in), Spread up to 30cm (12in).Hardiness & Longevity: Half-hardy Perennial.Ideal For: Patio Containers, Cottage Gardens or Cut Flower Gardens.Position: Sun or Semi Shade.Flowering Months: June to November.Please note: Images are for guidance only and illustrate expected results upon maturity.
