Begonia grandis 'Pink Teardrops'

Hardy Begonia

Plant Type:

SHADE PERENNIALS

Begonia grandis 'Pink Teardrops' - 'Pink Teardrops' is an offspring seedling selection of 'Heron's Pirouette'. Flowering all through the summer loads of pink begonia flowers repose on lax branched stems also infused with pink. Foliage reminds us of the Angel-wing Begonia. A Plant Delights intro and a good one at that, 'Pink Teardrops' will make you weep with joy... I'm shutting up now. Morning sun, dappled to open shade in fertile, draining soil. Established potted perennial from division.
