"Big Begonias"

"Big" Begonias

It's a whole new day for the begonia! Part Angel Wing, part Fibrous Begonia, the new BIG series by Park Seed is simply unique- it is the quickest blooming, largest, most vigorous Begonia the world has ever seen.  And this splendid color combines wonderfully with the large, bronze foliage. Its time to update the begonia basket, let BIG lead the way!
Can be used in shade/part sun or full sun. Needs good drainage.

An Exciting New Annual!

Catalina Gilded Grape  is one of the newest additions to our growing annual list from Proven Winners. It is one of the Torenia hybids (the common one is blue in color). This one is a butter yellow with a wonderful plum purple throat - sure to brighten any garden!

If you think about it, there aren't a lot of yellow annuals, short of the humdrum marigolds and old-timey zinnias. Well here comes a shade lover that will provide color throughout the hottest months. They thrive in high heat and humidity, so get excited and use them in hanging baskets, spruce up your window boxes and containers with an annual with heat tolerance and an extended blooming season.
