Begonia pedatifida ‘Apalala’

A selected foliage form of this very hardy Chinese species, named here, with the broad leaves exceptionally cut into multiple, often overlapping, sharply pointed lobes. Large lightly scented pure white flowers in mid to late summer. Fully hardy outside in even the very coldest winters here in rural Gloucestershire, forming a splendid clump. Well drained, open, humus-rich moist soil in part to full shade, mulched in winter if you're scared.
