Description
Begonia 'Camelia' is the floral equivalent of a perfectly tailored suit—refined, classic and always in good taste. Its luxurious, double blooms unfurl in a rich shade of deep rose, each petal elegantly trimmed with a fine white edge, giving the flowers a softly ruffled, almost hand-painted look. Whether grown in pots, hanging baskets or along a shaded garden path, Begonia 'Camelia' brings a touch of vintage glamour to summer displays. The glossy green leaves form a neat, compact mound beneath the flowers, setting off those rose-and-ivory tones beautifully.
Plant Begonia 'Camelia' in fertile, moist but well-drained soil and a spot that enjoys morning sun or light shade—too much heat and even this beauty prefers to keep her cool. With regular deadheading, she’ll flower prolifically from early summer until the first frost, creating a steady show of romantic colour with surprisingly little fuss. Begonia 'Camelia' is as versatile as it is elegant, fitting effortlessly into both formal planting schemes and more relaxed cottage garden displays. For anyone who appreciates plants with poise and personality, Begonia 'Camelia' offers a performance worthy of a standing ovation—season after season.
