Begonia 'Santa Cruz'
Trailing Begonia boliviensis 'Santa Cruz' produces masses of large, eye-catching, fiery red-orange blossoms between early summer and late autumn. These blooms are held against large, arrow-shaped, neatly serrated, green leaves. They make elegant cascades of vivid, elongated flowers, perfect for windowboxes and hanging baskets, where you can see the blooms from a lower position, or for any containers where they can hang beautifully over the sides.
Begonia boliviensis 'Santa Cruz' typically grows up to 30-40cm / 12-16" tall and wide. It is also the answer for those gardeners who want begonias that actually like hot and sunny conditions. The ideal soil should be rich, moist and well-drained. Provide good air circulation around plants, but protect them from strong winds. Helpfully, for the time-pressed gardener, this begonia does not require deadheading.
Store your begonia tubers over winter and plant them again next spring to repeat your summer success year after year.
