This shade-loving beauty just doesn’t know how to stop blooming! Big blooms of salmon-pink, with a fascinating “open” double or semi-double form, tumble profusely out of hanging baskets, planters, and window boxes. They won’t slow down in summer heat, either, blooming right into the first days of fall.
These flowers open a full 3 to 4 inches across, really lighting up that dark corner or shady porch. Illumination is the trailing form of the popular NonStop® series of tuberous Begonias, and reaches 15 inches high and 3½ feet long. You’ll love its free-branching habit and pendulous blooms!
The NonStops® are renowned for their great heat tolerance and super-dependable garden performance. They grow quickly and beautifully every time, with a compact, many-layered dense habit topped with beautiful blooms. And they aren’t called NonStop® for nothing — these flowers begin in late spring and continue through summer and into fall, asking only for a bit of shade and regular watering. So few container plants do well in shade — it’s a pleasure to grow one that actually prefers it! Rely on Illumination Pink to grace your cool and shady patio, deck, and porch. Pkt is 25 pelleted seeds.
