Variety traits
Plant height — Begonia elatior
Begonia x hiemalis Fotsch
This trait is measured from the substrate level to the top of the inflorescence or plant and is a key parameter in DUS testing for the variety trials of Begonia elatior.
In the reference 20 varieties crop Elatior Begonia, where this is mentioned in the description.
Begonia elatior is characterized by compact dimensions that vary depending on varietal traits: typical height ranges from 25–40 cm, miniature forms reach 8–15 cm, and vigorous varieties may exceed 50 cm. In professional practice, when assessing distinctness, uniformity, and stability, measurements are conducted on a sample of 10 plants.
Plant height is a manageable trait that depends on light intensity, nutritional regime, and container volume. Excessive nitrogen nutrition and lack of light contribute to shoot elongation, which negatively affects ornamental value. To maintain a commercial habit, shoot pinching and control of pot size, typically ranging from 10 to 16 cm, are employed.
