As bright at strobe lights the blooms of Begonia boliviensis ‘Bossa Nova™ Night Fever Rosso’ shine forth from baskets and containers for up to six months. Alongside this, well branched, dark and dramatic foliage - which emerges in March and lasts to November - acts as the perfect foil. Generous masses of fiery red, tubular flowers are held from May to October – just deadhead as flowers fade, if they do not drop themselves, to ensure continual supplies. Even better, these begonias have built-in tolerance of a variety of climates to keep them flowering across throughout three seasons. Your Begonia boliviensis ‘Bossa Nova™ Night Fever Rosso’ likes a spot in moist, well-drained soil of any kind except alkaline or heavy clay. Position in either sun or shade and be sure to store them away from frost over winter as they are tender, tuberous perennials. Plants mature to a height and spread of 45cm and will trail to around 30cm.
