Red Roseform Begonia
The big, red, roselike blooms on these begonias can be 4 to 8 inches across! They grow only 12" tall, and are perfect for pots or the front of the sunny border. The attractive, dark green foliage looks great on its own while waiting for the flowers to bloom. And the big blooms appear just when we need them most -- in late summer when other flowers are drooping and fading in the heat of the sun.
