Begonia - Spectrum Kari This begonia is a cross between the winter flowering Begonia socotrana, and the summer flowering tuberous types of begonias. These very vigorous Spectrum Begonias are excellent in porch boxes and hanging baskets. These plants perform best when soil temperatures are above 60°F and when planted in flowerbeds. They should not be subjected to more than ˝ day of sun as they will not tolerate a full sun location. Too much shade however, may cause the plants to become soft and less prolific in bloom.
