Begonia Cotton Candy 10" Hb

Begonia Cotton Candy is a stunning plant known for its soft pink, ruffled blooms that cascade beautifully from hanging baskets, creating a delicate and elegant display. An interesting characteristic of this begonia variety is its long-lasting flowers that bloom continuously, adding a pop of color to shady spots throughout the growing season.

In southern Louisiana, Cotton Candy begonias grow to a height of 12 to 18 inches with a trailing spread of 18 to 24 inches, making them ideal for hanging baskets. They thrive in partial to full shade, and while they are heat-tolerant, they are not frost-tolerant, requiring protection or treatment as annuals in USDA zones 9-11. These begonias prefer consistently moist, well-drained soil, so regular watering is essential, but be careful to avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
