‘BIG’ is Beautiful!
Welcome to the next generation of begonias…
100 years of begonia breeding is a BIG deal, and to celebrate
this monumental achievement, Benary is proud to introduce the
new ‘BIG’ begonia series. With all of the hype over tropical
varieties, ornamental grasses and vegetative annuals, you may
ask why you should be excited about a new begonia variety. After
all, a begonia is a begonia isn’t it? ….Well, not exactly….
We
used the name BIG for obvious reasons; the name really says it
all. BIG color, BIG performance, and even BIGger show in the
landscape. Performing from full sun to full shade and any
combination in between, the huge flowers and vigorous habit of
this series make it standout in any landscape location.
Reaching heights of 18-20” in the landscape, and spreading
12-15”, the ‘BIG’ series is so vigorous that you will use half
the plant material and receive double the flower power of any
other annual on the market.
Intensive breeding also ensures that disease problems are a
thing of the past.
The
‘BIG’ series has large, arching flower stems which hold the
flowers in large clusters over the foliage. The long, arching
stems ensure that spent petals are dropped onto the ground,
rather than into the crown of the plant, which greatly reduces
the risk of disease.
Trust us; this new series will revolutionize how you look at
annual color for-ever. Three colors: Red with Green Leaf, Red
with Bronze Leaf, and Rose with Bronze Leaf ensure that there is
a color for any landscape setting.
Growers interested in adding the ‘BIG’ series to their product
assortment should contact their broker or sales representative
for more information. For a complete listing of brokers, log on

company that offers over 2,000 annual and perennial varieties to
