Questions & Answers
Does a hanging plant come with the five bulbs already planted and ready to bloom? Or do the bulbs come separately and have to be planted into the hanging plant container?
You receive only the roots.
How many bulbs to a pack, and how many bulbs do you get for $20??
The (5-pack) on the name of the item refers to the number of bulbs/bareroot/tubers so in this case 5 tubers.
My understanding is that fibrous and rhizomatous begonias work well as houseplants while tuberous are difficult
DO NOT PURCHASE. They are nothing like pictured
