The colour has that soft, ripe-fruit warmth its name suggests, gently ageing to peachy tones, and the rounded mid-green leaves set it off beautifully. For anyone wanting a non-stop summer display in a hanging basket or tall container, this is one of the most rewarding begonias you can grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy gardeners love it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong flowering season, roughly June to October, with weatherproof double flowers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNaturally cascading, pendulous habit, ideal for baskets, window boxes and patio pots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThrives in the partial shade where many summer bedding plants sulk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTubers can be saved and grown on year after year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a trailing begonia, 'Harvest Moon' is happiest in light or partial shade, sheltered from strong midday sun and drying wind, which keeps the flower colour rich and the foliage unscorched. Plant the tuber in a free-draining, peat-free container compost with a little added grit, and keep it evenly moist without ever letting the roots sit wet. A fortnightly high-potash feed once the buds appear will keep the show going. Expect it to reach around 20-30 cm tall with stems trailing 30-45 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is worth remembering this is a tender, half-hardy begonia (RHS hardiness H2) rather than a fully garden-hardy plant. Stand it outside only once the risk of frost has passed, then in autumn lift the tuber before the first cold snap, dry it off and store it somewhere cool, dark and frost-free until spring. Treated this way, a single tuber will reward you for many seasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you have been searching for standout begonia plants for sale in the UK, this is a connoisseur's choice. Each plant is grown with care and dispatched in prime condition, ready to light up your garden, doorway or patio with that signature harvest glow.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GROW TROPICALS","offers":[{"title":"17cm","offer_id":57810283856255,"sku":"BEGHARVEST17","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/growtropicals.com\/products\/begonia-harvest-moon","provider":"GrowTropicals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
