Begonia - Spectrum Kari This begonia is a cross between the winter flowering Begonia socotrana, and the summer flowering tuberous types of begonias. The Spectrum Kari begonias are distinguished by their large, double flowers that are orange in color. These very vigorous Spectrum Begonias are excellent in porch boxes and hanging baskets.
