Yes, begonia flowers are scented! An excellent fragrant range for hanging baskets and elevated boxes are the ‘Fragrant Falls Improved’ in either lemon or apricot shades. These tumbling blooms have a superb fragrance that develops through the day and stays strong in rainy weather.
For fantastic staying power opt for a tuberous begonia. An excellent example is begonia x tuberhybrida 'Apricot Shades Improved' F1 Hybrid, which produces tumbling blooms from June all the way through to the first frosts. This is surely the best begonia for a trailing summer hanging basket.
Find double and full ruffled blooms with the tuberous begonias. These flowers are large and eye-catching. For delicate winks of colour, try the traditional begonia semperflorens. These little blooms are open, displaying yellow centres and wide petals.
The best begonias to grow indoors are the fabulously leafy and gloriously spotted begonia maculata along with the spiral patterned leafy begonias. These fantastic houseplants purify the air as they grow. Give their pot soil a refresh every now and then. Also make sure to clean their leaves, keeping them dust free for the best photosynthesis rates.
Begonias are such versatile bedding plants, performing well in shaded spots in the garden just as much as they do in full sun. If you have a shady spot then choose a tuberous begonia.
