Expert careTerrestrialNon-toxic10–40 cm

A begonia with narrow, lance-shaped leaves spotted in deep maroon against a pale green background. The leaf shape is unusually elongated for a begonia, giving it a distinct look. It needs high humidity and steady conditions, and does not forgive sudden changes in temperature or moisture.
