Customer Reviews
Living in Miami, I am fortunate to be able to grow big beautiful Begonias in my garden. B. imperialis, as it's name dictates, is the ruler. It will take a prominent position where it will be able to grow to live up to its name. Thanks for giving me a head start with a well-rooted, flowering plant. It was packed perfectly and was not damaged during transit.
Thanks for shopping with us and for the great review! We hope your plant continues to grow beautifully.
