The Begonia 'Belleconia' is an annual herbaceous plant belonging to the begoniaceae family. This variety is part of a series of recent hybrids, selected for their trailing habit, naturally compact and branching growth, floribundity, large and double flowers, as well as their great resistance. These Belleconia varieties, bushy, quickly reach a height of 25-30 cm (10-12in) and trail to 80 cm (32in) to 1 m (3ft) in height. Their abundant and prolonged flowering lasts from June to September, despite the heat and bad weather. Their elegant flowers, 5 cm (2in) wide, are double and composed of numerous elongated petals. They are gathered in bouquets and bloom among elegant elongated leaves, with dentate edges, in a dark green color. The plants tolerate partial shade and morning sun, as well as rainy and cool summers, as well as heatwaves, as long as they are regularly watered. With these 'Belconia' begonias, faded flowers naturally fall off.

The Belleconia Begonia is ideal for partial shade, in the garden or in pots. It can be used in troughs, balcony planters or hanging baskets, alone or mixed with other varieties in large hanging baskets. Begonias also thrive in well-maintained flower beds, alongside lighter flowers. Finally, it is good to know that there are hardy begonias, like Begonia grandis.
