Description
ShadThe stunning Begonia Boliviensis Santa Barbara graces your garden with cascading flowers resembling elongated bells. These delicate blooms feature white petals with a cheerful yellow center, adorning soft pink stems. The plant's long, slender leaves have serrated edges, adding to its allure. Boliviensis begonias, known for their trailing growth, are perfect for hanging baskets and various containers, where they elegantly spill over the sides. The Santa Barbara Variety proudly belongs to the Sun Cities Begonia Bulb Collection.
Begonia boliviensis Santa Barbara was introduced for sale in 2019. It was created by Michael Simcox, the same hybridizer who created Begonia boliviensis San Francisco.
Santa Barbara is a relatively easy begonia to grow. It prefers bright, indirect sunlight and moist, well-drained soil. It is relatively cold-tolerant and can be grown outdoors in mild climates.
