Begonia Bada Boom is a compact, versatile plant known for its eye-catching bronze leaves and vibrant flowers that bloom in shades of red, pink, and white. This variety stands out for its early blooming habit and ability to perform well in both sun and shade, making it a favorite for garden beds, borders, and containers. An interesting characteristic of Bada Boom begonias is their ability to maintain their color and vigor even in high heat, providing reliable beauty all season long.

In southern Louisiana, Bada Boom begonias typically grow to a height of 8 to 10 inches with a spread of 6 to 8 inches, forming a neat, compact mound. They can thrive in full sun to partial shade, but in the southern heat, partial shade is preferred to prevent scorching. Bada Boom begonias are not frost-tolerant, so they should be treated as annuals in southern Louisiana’s USDA zones 9-11. When it comes to watering, they prefer evenly moist soil, so water regularly, but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Keep the soil moist, especially during hot weather, for the best growth and bloom production.
