of respondents would recommend this to a friend
Warm yellow, heavily ruffled flowers edged in deep pink-red add cheery color to shaded areas. Yellow-Red Picotee Begonias have large, up to 6" across, camellia-like double flowers that bloom from midsummer to the first fall frost. Fleshy, medium-green leaves with serrated edges provide a wonderful backdrop for the blooms. These shade-loving, deer-resistant flowers are ideal for planting in window boxes, patio containers and hanging baskets. They're also good choices for adding bright color to flower beds or along a shaded walkway.

Only one out of the five corms came up. Flowers were small and disappointing. But KVB has good customer service, so I will get replacement next season.

My neighbors were all in awe of the gorgeous blooms! Heavy rains were hard on a few with their heavy blooms and will look for a more sheltered area in future.
