Plant of the Day

Monday 13 February 2023

The various cultivars of Begonia rex (king begonia, fan plant, painted-leaf begonia Begonia Rex Cultorum Group) have wonderful foliage with a silvery zone on the upper surface and reddish beneath. This evergreen perennial houseplant can also have panicles of small pink flowers to add even more interest.
