Nonstop Red Tuberous Begonia

Nonstop Red is an upright tuberous begonia with red flowers in Syngenta’s Nonstop series. The exact selection is listed at about 20–25 cm tall and wide, flowering from mid-spring through summer, and suitable for patio pots and baskets. ## Landscape Use Use this seasonal begonia in partially shaded beds, window boxes, and containers. The [Syngenta Nonstop Red profile](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/emea/de/product/flower/70051995) lists the red color, upright habit, flowering period, and garden dimensions. ## Siting Tuberous begonias grow well in partial or dappled shade and organically rich soil that stays moist while draining freely. Leave space around plants for airflow and shelter them from strong wind. [NC State Extension’s guide](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/begonia-tuberous-types/common-name/tuberous-begonia/) recommends these conditions and notes that tuberous begonias are not drought tolerant. ## Maintenance Water consistently during active growth, but avoid saturated soil that can rot the tuber. Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves. Before frost in cold-winter regions, move container plants to a frost-free place or lift and store the tubers for the next growing season.
