shade locations. They can handle brighter light indoors as long as it is not direct sun.

Plant in any kind of light, enriched, well-draining soil with higher to average moisture-holding content. Water new plants regularly using the Finger Test to help them get established.

Containers, window boxes, and planters with controlled environments where you can maintain their needs more easily. Feed monthly with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season.

Remove spent flowers and dead leaves to encourage new growth. In colder climates, bring tuberous Begonias indoors or store the tubers in a cool, dry place for the winter.

FAQs

Choosing the right Begonia variety for you!

Browse only for the Begonias for your Planting Zone using our USDA zone filters. Then choose sun exposure levels, or narrow the options by flower color, size, and more!

Do Begonias prefer sun or shade?

Most Begonias thrive in partial shade or indirect sunlight. While some, like Wax Begonias, can tolerate more sun, direct sunlight for extended periods may scorch the leaves.

What is the best fertilizer for Begonias?

Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season to encourage healthy blooms and foliage.

How do I care for Begonias in the winter?

For Tuberous Begonias:

  • Dig up the tubers after the foliage dies back.
  • Allow them to dry, remove any soil, and store them in a cool, dry place until spring.
    For other varieties, bring them indoors before the first frost and place them in a well-lit area.

For other Begonias:

  • Dig up the plant before frost and repot it. Gradually acclimate it indoors over a span of a few weeks to adapt it to indoor light and temperature conditions.
  • Place in an indirectly sunny location and monitor moisture levels closely.

Are Begonias deer-resistant?

Yes, most Begonias are deer-resistant, making them a great choice for gardens in areas with wildlife.
