Begonia - Splendide Ballerina - Apricot-gold show, ideal for balconies - Tubers - 2 pcs

Trailing begonia 'Splendide Ballerina' stands out for the warm, multi-tonal colouring of its flowers. The petals show transitions from light yellow to salmon and apricot shades, so the plant never appears uniform. As it grows, the shoots lengthen and naturally spill over the edge of the container, creating a loose cascade. The plant sets new buds continuously, which keeps it flowering heavily for many weeks.

Planting time

Tubers are best planted from February to March indoors, in a bright and warm place. The plants can be moved outside once the risk of frost has passed.

Planting depth

Cover the tubers with a layer of growing medium about 5-7 cm thick, using light, free-draining soil.

Spacing

Leave 25-30 cm between plants so the shoots have room to spread freely.

Height

This variety grows to about 25-35 cm tall and forms a trailing habit.

Flowering period

Flowers from June to October.

Overwintering

This plant is not frost-hardy - after the season, the tubers should be lifted and stored in a dry, cool place until spring.

Use

This variety is well suited to hanging baskets, balcony boxes and tall pots. Its warm colouring combines well with plants bearing yellow, cream or purple flowers and gives arrangements a summery character.
