NICE COMPANION PLANT
There are many types of Begonias used as companion plants in the garden. This particular variety is one of our favorites because the backs of the foliage are red and the blossoms (present now) are super pink. It likes filtered light, sometimes will take full sun and is very durable. It tolerates a freeze and uses average water. Right now these are on special. But the way, you can prune them to give a fuller, more low profile plant. These plants have pink blossoms with red backs to the leaves. The last photo shows landscape using a white variety of Begonia. Note, only a few left.
