For a harmonious overall picture, the different plants should be sensibly combined with each other in the garden. While some are more effective as solitaires, others, such as ice begonias, are better integrated into a bed.

Ice begonias and ornamental grasses are a beautiful combination

Which plants can I combine ice begonias with?

Ice begonias can not only be combined well with each other but also with other plants. For example, various ornamental grasses, lilies, verbena or the cannon flower come into question. However, all plants in a combination should require the same or at least similar care. It makes sense that the partner plants also prefer the same location as your ice begonias.

Tips for different combinations

Ice begonias come in white and various shades of red and pink, but not yellow or blue. So that your bed does not appear chaotic or too restless, not too many colors should be planted in a jumble. White ice begonia goes well with blue lilies.

Combinations of different foliage or leaf colors are also interesting, for example light green grasses with dark-leaved ice begonias. But you can also design a bed tone-in-tone, for example in pink and pink or with different red flowering plants.

Ice begonias on the grave

Ice begonias are quite popular to be planted on graves. There they can be combined very well with evergreen ground covers. So they provide some color, but the grave does not appear immediately colorful. The uncomplicated care of the ice begonia is also a great advantage here.

The polar begonia on the balcony

If you are looking for low-maintenance planting for your balcony, then you are on the right track with ice begonias. They are relatively undemanding and will even thrive on a shady east-facing balcony. However, the flowering is more lush when the ice begonias get a little more sunlight. However, they should only be planted out after the ice saints.

The essentials in brief:

  • different varieties to combine well with each other
  • suitable partner plants: lily, cannon flower, verbena, evergreen ground cover
  • well suited for planting on balconies or graves
  • only plant after the ice saints

tips

Ice begonias can be combined very well with each other or with other plants in a wide variety of ways.
