Description

Get ready to be amazed by Begonia 'Trail Blazer'! The trailing begonia that fills hanging baskets with semi-double blooms in orange, yellow, red, pink and white - you can barely see the foliage beneath!

Each flower stretches a whopping 7 to 10cm across, tumbling freely over the sides of baskets, window boxes and patio containers in a glorious living waterfall of colour.

Unlike many summer bedding plants that fade with the first signs of changeable weather, this begonia is made of sterner stuff. Bred to suit our beloved and wonderfully unpredictable British summers, it shrugs off heavy rain, gusty winds and sudden heat waves with ease, keeping every bloom looking freshly perfect from May all the way through to early November.

That is a full six months of showstopping colour! Easy to grow and quick to establish.

Supplied as a set of six plug plants, ready to grow on and plant out.

Top Tips

You can remove single female flowers to encourage more of the large double male flowers to be produced if you wish - although we like to leave them on for a fuller display.
Deadhead faded blooms to extend the flowering period.

Care Information

Begonias grow well in sun or light shade, and its trailing habit makes it perfect for growing in pots and hanging baskets.
For best results keep plants well watered, and feed fortnightly with a high-potash fertiliser to prolong flowering.
Remove faded flowers to encourage more blooms.
