Old-fashioned Beauty with a Modern Twist
BIG® BIG®
(B. x benariensis.) It’s a whole new day for Begonia! Part Angel Wing, part Fibrous Begonia, this unique new series is the quickest-blooming, largest, most vigorous Begonia the world has ever seen. The brilliant oval 2½-inch flowers appear in either sun or shade, while the foliage (green or bronze!) is glossy and large. Perfect for mass landscaping, bedding, edging, or containers, these 20-inch-tall, 24-inch-wide plants germinate very easily and are self-cleaning throughout their long, lovely summer season. Released exactly 100 years after the first-ever Begonia hybrid, BIG™ is a giant leap forward! Space plants 12 to 15 inches apart for dense coverage.

Giant, elegantly sculpted foliage cascades freely, set about with lovely pink picotee blooms over a very long season.
