Besides tuberous begonias, there are several other types, including fibrous-rooted begonias, which have a fibrous root system and are known for their vibrant foliage and flowers. Rhizomatous begonias, characterized by their thick, fleshy rhizomes, often feature unique leaf shapes and textures. Additionally, wax begonias are popular for their waxy leaves and abundant blooms, making them ideal for bedding and container gardening. Each type has its own specific care requirements and aesthetic appeal.

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.
Tuberous begonias thrive in bright, indirect sunlight. They prefer about 4 to 6 hours of filtered light each day, as direct sunlight can scorch their leaves. It's best to place them near a window with sheer curtains or in a lightly shaded outdoor area. Adequate light helps promote healthy growth and vibrant blooms.
Scarlet Begonias was created in 1974.
