Begonia 'Wummi Creme'

Begonia 'Wummi Creme' brings a whisper of old-world romance to the summer garden, its large, double blooms unfolding like swirls of clotted cream and soft butter-yellow. Each petal looks as if it’s been brushed with sunlight, creating a gentle, luminous display that feels effortlessly elegant. When massed together, the flowers glow serenely above neat, glossy green foliage—perfect for brightening shaded corners or softening the edges of a patio container. Begonia 'Wummi Creme' has a refined, almost nostalgic charm, the sort of flower that looks perfectly at ease next to vintage terracotta pots or a cup of tea on the garden table.

Despite its delicate colouring, Begonia 'Wummi Creme' is surprisingly tough. It thrives in moist, fertile, well-drained soil and partial shade, where it flowers generously from early summer until the first frosts. A little deadheading here and there keeps it looking immaculate, though even without constant attention, this cream-coloured begonia remains tidy and composed. Its long flowering season and subtle palette make it a perfect partner for bolder companions—think deep pink fuchsias or trailing ivy. For gardeners seeking a plant that radiates quiet sophistication rather than loud applause, Begonia 'Wummi Creme' offers a masterclass in understated beauty—soft, steady, and always in style.
