Double Up Pink Begonias are non-stop flowering in morning sun in Ohio Zone 6. Need drip irrigation because they are not drought tolerant. Bloomed early and we're covered in flowers the entire summer. This is a great choice for outside a window. Where you can see them all summer long. I planted 2 and 3 inch plants in June and they are two feet tall in September.

Maintenance Notes:These plants are versatile working in both sun or shade, which makes them a wonderful unifiying plant to use in both sun and shade beds. Unlike older begonias, these are quite vigorous. They can tolerate some drought conditions, but will look their best with more consistent moisure and regular feeding. They love the heat and are self cleaning so the plants look very clean. They do not need to be deadheaded to bloom all summer long. What's not to love!
