Protected Series: WHOPPER
Zone: WHOPPER® ROSE WITH GREEN LEAF BEGONIA
Begonia Whopper® Rose Green Leaf is a premier choice for high-impact commercial landscapes and large-scale residential designs, celebrated for its extraordinary vigor and massive presence. This heavy-duty interspecific variety features oversized, glossy, shield-like leaves in a bright, apple-green that gives the plant a lush, tropical appearance. The clean green foliage provides a crisp, high-contrast backdrop that makes the large, rose-pink flowers look incredibly bright and fresh as they cluster heavily above the canopy. Growing with a robust, upright, and well-branched habit, it quickly reaches an impressive 28 to 34 inches in height and 22 to 26 inches in width, filling open space rapidly.
Because it lacks the darker bronze pigments of its dark-leafed counterpart, Whopper® Rose Green Begonia is at its absolute best when planted in partial sun to full shade, where the bright green leaves and vivid pink blooms are protected from the bleaching effects of the intense afternoon sun. In the landscape, it is an ideal selection for large-scale mass plantings under high-canopy trees, defining structural borders in shaded beds, or acting as a dramatic, low-maintenance "thriller" in oversized patio containers. It thrives in fertile, well-drained soil and prefers consistent, moderate moisture.
