Amerihybrid Tuberous Begonia Tubers Red - Red Giant Ruffled Begonia Tubers
This ruffled red begonia is the first choice for gardeners who appreciate the details. Take a closer look - the flowers have fine ruffles on the petals and nicely pinked edges. The tapered leaves show ghosted veining, similar to that found on specialty begonias grown solely for their foliage. And the plant exhibits a healthy, rounded form that fills out a pot or garden border very nicely. Perfect to the last detail. Oh, did we mention that you can count on blooms all summer and into fall?
