Horticultural Description

We bought this Begonia at the convention and it is simply to beautiful not to off. However we do not know much of anything about this plant other than it resembles most to a rex begonia.

🌿 Jen’s Bench Notes:

“In our Lake Erie greenhouses, this cultivar produces its most vibrant foliage when given consistent morning light and steady warmth. When your order arrives, allow it to settle for 24 hours in indirect light before potting up into fresh, airy potting mix.”

— Jen Webber, Lead Horticulturist
