Ideal for containers and baskets. Plant tubers of scented Begonias in small pots or trays in moist compost from February to March. Grow on in a warm, frost free position. Transplant into final containers when plants are well grown.
When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise scented Begonias to outdoor conditions over a 7 to 10 day period. Choose a sheltered position and protect their delicate stems from strong winds. Feed and water plants frequently. Deadhead faded flowers to encourage more blooms to be produced. When stems blacken with first autumn frost, remove tubers from their containers. Wash and dry the tubers then store over winter in peat or sand, in a cool but frost free position. Replant tubers in Feb/ March.
