Notes

'Martha Stewart' begonia (Begonia 'Martha Stewart') is a perennial for borders, containers, and shade gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes part sun to full shade and dry to moist soil. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. It stays low at 6 to 9 inches tall and bears pink flowers in summer and again in autumn.

Pairs well with Wild ginger, Southern shield fern, and Licorice plant.
