The three most popular varieties of begonias for gardening are tuberous begonias, Rex begonias, and fibrous rooted begonias. Fibrous rooted begonias are also called the old fashioned wax.
red tuberous begonias have a red stem
Tuberous or fibrous rooted? All commonly-grown ones are frost-tender, so you must wait until the last frosts have gone. In frost-free areas they are perrenial.
The scientific or taxonomic name would be Begonia tuberhybridacultorum.
You can plant trailing begonias out in pots after they have wintered in early to late Spring - depending on the zone. A rough rule of thumb is to wait until after the last frost or very cold night. If you have propagated the Begonias, then give them some time to get used to the cooler conditions by giving them a little shelter for a few days, such as on a porch,against a house wall or in a cold frame. If they have been indoor forced Begonias, then they may be a little more sensitive and need protection for a little longer:
Scarlet Begonias was created in 1974.

Elatior Hybrids (Reiger Begonia, Begonia x hiemalis, indoor begonia) are a cross between a fibrous (wax) begonia and a tuberous begonia. They have large flowers like a tuberous begonia and bloom continuously like a fibrous begonia. However, they are not as long lived as most tuberous begonias. When grown as outdoor plants in the summer, they are usually treated as annuals to be thrown away after 3 to 6 months. When grown as indoor houseplants, they can live several years by pruning back old stems to encourage new growth and flowers. You can also propagate Elatiors from leaf cuttings, but take care to bury at least one leaf node so the plant will grow a tuber that will sprout new stems.
