Tell Me More…
Begonia ‘Nonstop Mocca Mixed’ are a family of upright plants that boast fascinating velvety, eye-catching, chocolate-green, almost brown foliage. The large, fully double, blousy blooms in shades of distinctive bright red, pale orange and buttercup yellow blooms almost cover the foliage from June to October, often longer. Standing out well against the dark foliage, and unbothered by whatever the weather produces, you will have containers, borders and window boxes overflowing with non-stop vibrant colour long after many other summer sensations have tired. Growing best in a sunny or partly shaded area in moist, well-drained soil, Begonia ‘Nonstop Mocca Mixed’ originate from subtropical, moist climates in Central America. Having been given an RHS classification of Tender H2, ensure the tubers are kept in a sheltered, dry, frost-free environment over winter, and you will be able to plant out again in spring and enjoy the colourful display the following year.
