Begonia grandis 'Heron's Pirouette'

From the grower, Plant Delights:







"This Heronswood introduction was made from wild-collected seed from Dan's 1997 expedition to Japan. While the triangular green foliage on the 15" clump is similar to the species, it is the huge and excessively large flower clusters of deep pink that set this selection apart. For us, Begonia 'Heron's Pirouette' begins flowering in June and continues treating hummingbirds non-stop until fall. As with the species, it reproduces true from axillary bulbils, so you'll soon have plenty to share. Very easy and very nice!"
