BEGONIA CARAVAN


Begonia Caravan (Serlis) is one of the most beautiful of all begonias. Not super easy to grow for me in Florida, but possible with some attention. Good air circulation, good watering practices and proper humidity. It will grow in a terrarium, but you will need a large one. However, it also makes a lovely basket and can even be grown in the ground, if attention is paid to the area, which has appropriate water, light and some mulching. The leaves are fragile and easily damaged, so this is a consideration for any chosen site.
