Begonias thrive in pots or garden beds, delivering vibrant color to gardens, balconies, and interiors. As one of the most beloved and easy-to-grow bedding plants, their diverse hues make them indispensable for seasonal displays. Whether indoors or out, begonias must stay warm through winter.
Before temperatures near 0°C, repot your begonias into terracotta pots filled with light, humus-rich soil and bring them indoors. For garden plants, shield them from frost by mulching with dried flowers. Alternatively, lift the tubers for storage and replant come spring. Begonias love full sun and consistent moisture—set them in holes enriched with a peat and heather soil mix for best results. These time-tested practices, drawn from decades of horticultural expertise, ensure your begonias flourish year after year.
