Begonia Immortality Hymenocallis the 25" tall stalksBegonia 'Immortality' is a 2021 Plant Delights JLBG introduction of a winter hardy seedling we selected from a strain of winter hardy bedding begonias. In 2014, NC gardener Ralph Whisnant shared seed from a strain of winter hardy bedding begonias. We grew out hundreds, from which we selected unique forms for in ground hardiness trials. Only two selections survived the winter extremes here in 2017, one of which we recognized as being outstanding.
