BEGONIA SEEDS

The Begonia genus, commonly known simply as Begonia, is a diverse and vibrant member of the Begoniaceae family. Renowned for their stunning, asymmetrical foliage and showy flowers in a wide range of colours, Begonia plants are cherished as ornamental favourites for gardens, containers, and indoor displays. Their blooms, which can be single or double, appear in shades of pink, red, white, yellow, or orange, adding striking colour throughout the growing season.

Native to tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, Begonia thrives in well-drained soils and partially shaded locations. These versatile plants are suited to both warm outdoor climates and indoor cultivation, making them popular among gardeners and houseplant enthusiasts alike. Species such as Begonia rex are particularly prized for their stunning, colourful foliage, while Begonia semperflorens, or Wax Begonia, is loved for its continuous flowering habit.

The Begonia genus combines beauty, variety, and adaptability, making it a timeless choice for anyone looking to add lush greenery and vibrant blooms to their surroundings.
