Description
White is the colour of purity and innocence, but it also has a cooling effect. A container or two of bright white flowers might be just the thing for your patio when the summer sun starts to leave you a little frazzled. The Begonia 'Double White' could be just the right answer – its slightly creased white petals layered one on top of another create an almost rose-like flower that’s as cool and calm as can be. These white double Begonia flowers will give even the most tired spirit a refreshing lift. Just remember that direct sun can be tough on these flowers, too. Rather choose a place on the northern side or where a tree or roof can keep this pristine beauty happy with partial shade!
