Heavy- and ever-blooming, Cocktail Mix blooms in a mix of colors, including white, white with red edges, pink, rose-pink, dark pink, and red flowers. And the flowers are pollinator friendly. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMembers of the Semperflorens Cultorum Group, commonly called wax begonias, Cocktail Mix varieties have a compact, bushy, mounding habit. Shown to best effect massed or grouped, waxed begonia is ideal for small flowerbeds and containers and makes nice edging. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTough, low maintenance, and easy to grow from seed, waxed begonias grow best in sunny to dappled sun locations with average to moderately fertile, moist, well-draining soils, having an acidic pH between 5.5 and 6.2. The plants benefit from consistent moisture, good air circulation, and frequent fertilization with a complete balanced fertilizer. Waxed begonias tolerate heat, humidity, and some drought, but they will not tolerate frost. They are typically black walnut and rabbit resistant. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDirect sow begonia seed into the garden in spring after the chance of frost has passed and the soil has warmed or start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost date and transplant.  \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis seed comes as a pellet.
