Begonia

Begonia is the representative of the Begoniaceae family. It can be planted in flowerpots, as a house decoration, but also as a garden plant for decoration of parks and gardens. Since begonias are sensitive to direct sunlight, draft, and changes in temperature, it is best to plant them somewhere sunny, but protected from the direct sunlight, or where is partly shady. This plant’s delicate stem is sensitive to heavy summer downpours and strong wind. Stem is straight or stooped, 20 to 30 centimeters high (7.9 to 11.8 inches). Begonia bulbs are planted in period between the end of March and middle of May, and they bloom between July and September.
