10 Pelleted Seeds Light Pink Begonia Wax Begonia Semperflorens
Light pink wax begonia produces compact, uniform plants with a steady display of soft pink blooms and glossy green foliage. A classic choice for beds, borders, and containers, this warm-season annual delivers reliable color from early summer until frost with minimal upkeep.
Ideal for mass plantings, edging, hanging baskets, and mixed containers, wax begonia performs well in part shade and tolerates more sun where summers are mild. Plants stay tidy and mound-shaped, flowering continuously without deadheading, and pair nicely with alyssum, lobelia, and impatiens. Pelleted seed makes sowing and handling easier for even spacing in trays and packs.
