Bring a vibrant splash of deep pink colour to your garden, patio, or balcony with this stunning Begonia Solenia Dark Pink. Part of the acclaimed Solenia series, this variety produces an abundance of large, fully double, rose-like blooms in a rich dark pink shade. The compact, well-branched habit makes it an excellent choice for containers, window boxes, hanging baskets, and summer bedding displays.
Unlike many traditional tuberous begonias, the Solenia series has been bred for improved sun tolerance, allowing it to thrive in both sunny and partially shaded positions. The lush, glossy green foliage provides a beautiful backdrop to the continuous flush of flowers from early summer right through to the first frosts of autumn.
