Double Delight Blush Rose Begonia

Double Delight® Blush Rose is a tuberous begonia with lightly fragrant, double soft-pink flowers and dark green foliage. Its compact, mounding-to-trailing form makes it a useful flowering spiller for patio containers and hanging baskets from spring into summer. ## Size and display [Proven Winners lists the cultivar](https://www.provenwinners.com/plants/begonia/double-delight-blush-rose-begonia-tuberhybrida) at about 20–36 cm tall and 30–61 cm wide, with stems forming a full container display. The plant is listed for flowering from spring through summer and until frost, and deadheading is not required for continued bloom. Its flower color is soft pink; the official cultivar page identifies the selection as ‘KERBESPIROS’. ## Growing conditions Grow in part sun to sun and keep the medium consistently moist but well drained. The listed hardiness range is USDA zones 9b–11b; in colder climates, treat it as an annual or lift and store its corms frost-free before winter. [RHS guidance](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/begonias/outdoors) notes begonias generally grow well in partial shade; provide afternoon protection where hot exposure stresses the plant. ## Maintenance Water the soil rather than routinely wetting the foliage, and let excess water drain freely. Remove damaged leaves and flowers for appearance; routine deadheading is unnecessary. Lift corms before frost only if you can store them in a cool, frost-free place, then replant after danger of frost has passed.
