Park Seed BIG Red with Green Leaf Begonia Seeds

Description / BIG Red with Green Leaf Begonia Seeds

It's a whole new day for begonia. Part angel wing, part fibrous begonia, the new BIG series is simply unique—it's the quickest-blooming, largest, most vigorous begonia the world has ever seen. And this splendid color (a fire-engine bright crimson-red) combines wonderfully with the large, succulent-looking bright green foliage. If it's time to update the begonia basket, let BIG lead the way.

These color-drenched oval 2½-inch flowers appear in great clusters, while the green foliage is glossy and oversized, with nicely pointed tips. BIG Rose reaches about 20 inches high and blooms all summer in sun or shade. What a change from fussy older varieties.

Perfect for mass landscaping, bedding, edging, or containers, the BIG begonias 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 apart for dense coverage.

This seed comes as a "pellet". "Pelleted" seeds are small seeds that have been clay-coated to make them larger and more uniform in size and shape, making them easier to handle when planting.
