Begonia corallina, also known as coral begonia, is originally from South America and has been cultivated for a very long time for its attractive appearance.
They have stunning leaves with small white dots, which are delicately tinged with red from below. When in bloom, their flowers are pink to red and the stems green. This very vigorous form can grow over 1 m tall!

- Light: Grows best in bright, indirect light.
- Humidity: Prefers humid environments so will do best in a kitchen or bathroom. Best not to mist these plants as they don't like their leaves getting too wet.
- Watering: They prefer moister soil. Water when top half inch or so soil dries out. Bottom water ideally as their leaves don't like to get too wet.
- Temperature: Prefers warmer room temperatures.
- Pets: Harmful if eaten. Keep out of reach.
Note: all our plants are unique. The plant you receive might not be identical to the one photographed, but we’re sure you’re going to love it either way!
*Price is for plant in nursery pot only, does not include decorative pot.
