Begonia Rose Petticoat Bulbs bring a touch of elegance to gardens with their exquisite rose-shaped blooms. The flowers showcase a pristine white base with delicate pink picotee edges, creating a soft yet striking appearance. Complemented by rich, glossy green leaves, these begonias grow compactly and produce abundant blooms, perfect for hanging baskets, containers, or shaded garden borders. Their versatility makes them ideal for enhancing patios, balconies, or even indoor spaces. The vibrant flowers also pair beautifully with other blooms in flower arrangements, adding charm and texture.
Planting instructions
Plant in well-draining, nutrient-rich soil in a shaded or partially shaded area, ensuring bulbs are positioned with the concave side facing up.
Place the bulbs just below the soil surface, about 2-3 cm deep, and cover lightly with soil.
Growing Requirements
Pests
Susceptible to aphids, spider mites, and powdery mildew. Regularly check for pests and use organic pest control methods if needed.
soil
Prefers well-draining, humus-rich soil with good moisture retention for optimal growth.
spot
Grows best in shaded or partially shaded locations, making it an excellent choice for balconies, patios, and under trees.
temperature
Thrives in temperatures between 18-24°C, with protection needed from extreme heat and frost.
watering
Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid waterlogging. Water at the base to prevent fungal issues on the leaves.
how to harvest
Cut flowers when fully open using sharp scissors, leaving some foliage to support future blooms. Pair with ferns, baby’s breath, or roses for elegant arrangements.
To keep them fresh longer in a vase, trim the stems at an angle, change the water every two days, and keep them in a cool, shaded spot away from direct sunlight.
