Strong F₁ hybrid with constant flowering

Nonstop® Rose Picotee is a high-quality F₁ tuber hybrid, ensuring uniform growth, sturdy stems, and reliable flowering. The plants develop into compact bushes 25–35 cm tall, abundantly covered with large, double flowers 5–7 cm in diameter.

Flowering begins early in the season, from May onwards, and continues until the first frost. Thanks to their dense branching and strong, upright stems, these plants are ideal for mass plantings, borders, and potted plants.

Key Features:

• 🌞 Continuous flowering from May to October

• 🌿 Compact, upright growing plant – ideal for borders and pots

• 🌸 Double flowers in pink with a white accented edge (Picotee effect)

• 🌧️ Weather resistant and low maintenance

Pink Picotee flowers for a striking garden

What makes the Nonstop® Rose Picotee unique is its romantic pink color with white accented edges, which adds a special and elegant touch to any outdoor space. The compact plants form a dense layer of flowers, making borders and pots look full and vibrant.

The plant is largely self-cleaning, so wilted flowers disappear automatically and flowering continues. The playful picotee effect makes this begonia ideal for mixed borders, patio pots, and mass plantings, and it combines beautifully with other summer bloomers such as white or pink begonias, bacopa, or lobelia.
