This bulb dies back after flowering each year and enters a period of rest ahead of regrowth the following season.

A gift set featuring begonia corms which will develop into elegant double white flowers with a faint pink blush. Supplied with the hanging planter as imaged, 'Mother's Day' will form an arching cascade of colour to a partially shaded spot, particularly if the spent flowers are deadheaded regularly. Contains everything needed to grow these beautiful, summer flowering plants. Grows to 20cm.

Growing instructions: Make the compost by placing the peat-free compost pellet in a suitable mixing container and add 350ml of lukewarm water. Allow to stand and expand for 30-60 minutes, drain off any excess water and mix compost well. You may have compost than you require and more water could be required if the compost mix is looking dry.

Plant from March onwards. Fill 90% of the planter with the compost and place the tubers hollow part upwards taking care not to damage any shoots. Tubers should be slightly bedded into the compost. If frosts are still possible, place in a light, frost-free position, keeping the compost moist. Once the risk of frost has passed, place outside. Flowers will last longer if in semi-shade. Keep compost moist and remove faded flowers.
