Begonia Dark Leafed Red

Begonia Dark Leafed Red
Generations of careful breeding have produced a handful of dark leafed begonias and this is one of the best. Lovely roseform blooms and leaves with such rich shading that the foliage alone earns this plant its garden space. For a shade solution that's colorful, has attractive, full blooms that keep the plants covered with flowers all season long and deeply contrasted foliage as a bonus, here's your answer.
