{"product_id":"begonia-immortality","title":"Begonia Immortality","description":"\u003cp\u003eBegonia 'Immortality' is a 2021 Plant Delights\/JLBG introduction of a winter hardy seedling we selected from a strain of winter hardy bedding begonias. In 2014, NC gardener Ralph Whisnant shared seed from a strain of winter hardy bedding begonias. We grew out hundreds, from which we selected unique forms for in-ground hardiness trials. Only two selections survived the winter extremes here in 2017, one of which we recognized as being outstanding. Begonia 'Immortality' is either a selection or hybrid of Begonia cucullata, but without the tendency to seed around like the species. The 2' tall x 2' wide plants emerge with green leaves, edged red, and topped with a parade of pink flowers from spring through late summer. We recommend these get some direct sun for part of the day where possible, since increased light intensity increases winter hardiness.\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Plant Delights Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32454643613783,"sku":"16726","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/files\/Begonia-Immortality.i-16726.s-66295.r-1.jpg?v=1783352341","url":"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/products\/begonia-immortality","provider":"Plant Delights Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
