Description
Introducing the Begonia Boliviensis San Francisco – a charming addition from the Sun Cities Collection that unfurls its beauty through a profusion of vibrant salmon-orange flowers, strikingly set against its long, slender, and serrated leaves. Ideal for your container garden, this begonia finds its flourish in hanging baskets or window boxes, where its blossoms cascade in graceful splendor. For optimal performance, position this variety in full sun, as it thrives most magnificently in these conditions.
Begonia boliviensis San Francisco was introduced in 2007 by the American Begonia Society. It was created by Michael Simcox, a begonia hybridizer from San Francisco, California. Begonia boliviensis San Francisco is a hybrid between Begonia boliviensis var. lilacina and Begonia boliviensis var. rubriflora.
As a bonus for UK gardeners, we are delighted to offer shipping for our begonia tubers directly to your gardening haven. Discover the enchantment of Begonia Boliviensis San Francisco, a delightful testament to nature's elegance.
