Begonia Non-Stop Yellow
B3594
Description
Non-Stop 'Yellow' Begonias are excellent for adding vivid colour to your summer displays. Bearing masses of radiant yellow blooms that can reach up to 10 cm in diameter. Our begonias flower for months on end, from May until at least September, Non-Stop Begonias are perfect for both beginners and the more experienced gardener.
Begonias thrive best in light soil which is rich in leaf-mould, in a position in part shade where the layered flowers shimmer as they catch the light. Start in March or April, preferably in a cold frame or greenhouse.
Because of their compact size and continuous bloom cycle, Non-Stop Begonias are perfect for containers, window boxes, and hanging baskets. They can reach a flowering height of between 15-20 cm.
de Jager's Non-Stop 'Yellow' Begonia tubers are top quality, top size and really make a huge difference in terms of flowering.
Care Guide
Begonia tubers should be started in March or April, in a cold frame or greenhouse.
Choose a pot with a 20cm diameter and several holes in the bottom for drainage. Fill it with rich, good quality compost, leaving a 5cm gap from the rim. Plant your Begonia tuber with the hollow side uppermost, ensuring it sits 2.5cm below the soil surface. Water consistently, keeping the soil evenly moist, but not waterlogged. Place the pot undercover, in a shaded area with temperatures around 18-24°C and shoots will soon start to appear.
Once the danger of frost has passed, usually around the beginning of June, Begonias can be planted out.
Begonias will reach a height of 30-45cm, boasting vibrant, showy blooms ideal for patio containers and hanging baskets.
In October, lift the tubers, remove faded foliage and store in a frost-free place, in dry compost or wood shavings.

Special Mixture
M6168
A brilliant blaze of glowing amber, canary yellow, and bold crimson, this specially selected assortment of large-flowering Crocosmia provides extraordinary ornamental value throughout the season.
Early in the summer, blades of upright, sword-like foliage give rise to wands of nib-like buds on wiry stems. These little buds unfurl into open, starry blooms full of vibrant colour, proving a magnet for pollinators. In the autumn, the petals fall and leave attractive, rounded, dark orange seedpods.
Appealing at every stage of their development, these Crocosmia Large Flowering Special Mixture will spread rapidly into dramatic drifts amongst borders and are a striking statement for large patio containers.
