The Begonia Novelty Dark Leaf Ruby, Begonia Novelty 'Dark Leaf Ruby', is a dark leaf begonia with dark red blooms that is an exotic touch to any garden. The rich dark foliage with contrasting leaf veins are the perfect accent for the double flowers. Our On Top Begonias are the best available PIcotee for containers. They are the most heat tolerant and are as quick to grow as Non-Stop but better branched and produce more flowers. Begonias prefer moist, well-drained soil with plenty of humus. Pinch off the first few buds to encourage larger, more vigorous growth. Water abundantly during bloom period. In fall dig up the bulbs before the first night frost and store over winter in dry peat, in a cool dry place.
