WHOPPER® ROSE WITH DARK LEAF BEGONIA -
28-34 Inches Tall 22-26 Inches Wide--
Begonia Whopper® Rose Dark Leaf is a premier choice for commercial landscapes and high-impact residential designs, renowned for its exceptional vigor and massive scale. This heavy-duty interspecific variety features oversized, glossy, shield-like leaves in a deep bronze-maroon color that holds its intense dark pigment beautifully through the heat of summer. The dramatic foliage provides a rich, velvety backdrop that makes the large, rose-pink flowers look incredibly intense and vivid as they cluster heavily above the canopy. Growing with an upright, well-branched habit, it quickly reaches a robust 28 to 34 inches in height and 22 to 26 inches in width, easily outpacing standard bedding begonias.
In the landscape, Whopper® Rose Dark Leaf Begonia is ideal for large-scale mass plantings, defining structural borders, or creating a high-contrast backdrop in expansive garden beds. Thanks to its rich dark foliage and rugged genetics, it delivers heat, humidity, and weather tolerance, performing reliably in locations ranging from full sun to partial shade. It is also a fantastic, low-maintenance option for oversized patio containers where a bold, structural look is desired. It thrives in fertile, well-drained soil and prefers consistent moisture, though its tough nature allows it to tolerate short dry spells once established.
