Begonia Odorata 'Sunny Dream' (Ships in Spring)

Fragrant Begonia

Begonia 'Sunny Dream' is a fragrant, cascading variety with fully double, lemon-yellow blooms that brighten shaded spaces. Blooming from early summer until frost, its flowers emit a delicate sweet scent, making it one of the most fragrant begonias available. Thriving in partial shade to full shade, it prefers rich, well-drained soil and consistent moisture. Its sculpted green foliage adds texture, while its trailing habit makes it ideal for hanging baskets, containers, and shaded garden beds. In colder climates, tubers should be lifted and stored indoors before frost to ensure a fresh display the following season.
