Trailing begonia 'Splendide Apricot' draws the eye with its warm apricot-salmon flowers. The colour is not completely uniform - the petals show delicate transitions between lighter and deeper tones, giving the plant a natural, soft appearance. As it grows, the shoots trail freely, creating a light, cascading form. The plant gradually produces more buds, so it remains decorative throughout the summer.
It is worth starting the tubers in February or March by planting them in pots placed in a bright, warm room. Move the plants to their permanent outdoor position once the spring frosts have passed.
Cover the tuber with a layer of growing medium about 5-7 cm thick, using light, free-draining soil.
Leave about 25-30 cm between plants so the shoots can spread and trail freely.
This variety reaches about 25-35 cm in height, forming its characteristic trailing habit.
The first flowers appear in June, and flowering continues until October.
In autumn, the tubers should be lifted, cleaned and stored in a dry, cool place, as the plant is not frost-hardy.
This variety combines well with plants in cooler shades such as violet or silvery green. The apricot tone softens contrasts and gives plantings a warmer, summery character. It works well both as the main plant in a composition and as a complement to other seasonal plantings.
