Ice begonias are not only easy to care for but also quite undemanding in terms of their location. Therefore they can be planted almost anywhere. Ice begonias can often be seen on graves, where they provide a pleasantly fresh but unobtrusive splash of color.
Which location is ideal for ice begonias?
The ideal location for ice begonias is a partially shaded place with slightly moist, humus-rich and permeable soil. They also thrive in the shade, but bloom less profusely there. Ice begonias are suitable for grave planting as well as for shady balconies.
Where do ice begonias bloom best?
Ice begonias need a lot of light to bloom profusely. Nevertheless, they thrive particularly well in a partially shaded location. They prefer slightly moist soil, but do not like waterlogging. Even if they bloom less there, ice begonias can be grown quite well in the shade. They are also suitable for shady balconies.
