How you will receive your bulbs:

Selected by our team of experts and sent from our nursery, you will receive your bulbs in a breathable mesh bag. This is to keep the bulbs together in a pack that is nice and airy – perfect to keep the bulbs healthy while in transit.

Can’t plant straight away?

Keep your bulbs in a cool, light, and dry place and preferably hanging on a hook so that air can get to the bulbs at all angles. Ideally, you should aim to plant your bulbs within a week of receiving them, but if this is not possible, store them in a cool, dark place until you are ready to plant them.

Planting tips and hints:

Planting in containers: Start begonia tubers indoors from January onwards. Fill a small pot with multi-purpose compost. Place the tuber on top of the compost with the concave side facing upwards and gently push it into the compost so that it is just below the surface, with the concave top of the tuber still visible. Water the pot and place it in a bright, frost free place. Check regularly and water when the compost becomes dry

Feeding and aftercare:. As the plants start to grow, water more frequently but do not allow the compost to become waterlogged. Harden off plants and plant outdoors after all risk of frost is past. Feed flowering plants every week with a high potash liquid feed like tomato fertiliser. Water regularly during dry periods.

*Planting and flowering months below are subject to seasonal weather conditions.
