Seasonal Interest: Long Lasting Summer Colour

Begonia tubers are planted in spring and reward you with months of beautiful blooms.

  • Spring planting indoors or in a frost-free space helps the tubers wake up and establish strong early growth.
  • Early summer brings the first flowers as the weather begins to settle and warm.
  • Mid to late summer is when begonias truly shine, filling pots and baskets with steady, generous colour.
  • Autumn displays often stay lively and fresh right up until the first frost arrives.

Pair trailing varieties with upright doubles for a fuller, layered look in containers. For even more inspiration, explore our Hanging Basket Plants to create a rich and lasting summer display.

How to Choose and Grow Begonia Tubers in UK

Choosing the right begonia tubers depends on your space, light levels, and the style you want to create.

  • For hanging baskets, choose trailing pendula begonias that naturally spill over the sides.
  • For patio pots, double-flowering varieties give bold, rounded blooms that draw attention.
  • For shaded borders, mixed or softer pastel shades blend beautifully into lower light areas.
  • Plant tubers hollow side up in free-draining compost, just lightly covered.
  • Water gently at first, then increase watering once shoots begin to grow.

Begonias grow best in partial shade and sheltered spots. With simple care and steady watering, they will provide reliable colour all season long.

Add your chosen begonia tubers to your basket and get ready for a summer filled with flowers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Begonias grown for summer displays are technically tubers, not true bulbs. They are sometimes referred to as begonia bulbs or begonia corms, but most popular garden varieties are tuberous begonias. These swollen underground structures store energy and produce new growth each season.
Begonia tubers usually take two to three weeks to sprout once planted in warm conditions. Flowering typically begins around 12 to 16 weeks after planting. Starting them indoors in early spring can encourage earlier blooms.
Begonia tubers can return each year if lifted and stored properly over winter. In the UK, they are not fully frost hardy, so the tubers should be dried and kept in a cool, frost free place. Replant them the following spring for another season of flowers.
Plant begonia tubers indoors from late February to April to give them a head start. Move them outside once the risk of frost has passed, usually from late May. This timing helps ensure strong summer flowering.
Plant begonia tubers just below the compost surface with the hollow side facing up. Cover lightly with compost and avoid overwatering before shoots appear. Once growth is visible, increase watering gradually.
For a full 30cm basket, three to five begonia tubers usually create a balanced display. Trailing varieties such as pendula types will spill over the edges beautifully. Spacing them evenly allows each plant to develop fully.
