Description

The Begonia Rex Spitfire is a true showstopper with its fiery leaf colours. Bold reds, shimmering silver and deep greens create a pattern that looks almost painted. No two plants are the same – ideal if you're after something beyond plain green leaves.

Origin

This striking Begonia comes from the tropical forests of Southeast Asia, where it grows in shady spots with plenty of humidity.

Care

Light

Loves bright, indirect light. Keep it out of direct sun to protect the leaf colours. A spot with dappled light or partial shade works well.

Water

Water moderately. Let the top of the soil dry out a bit before watering again. Avoid soggy roots by using a pot with drainage.

Humidity

High humidity helps this plant thrive. You can mist around the plant or place a tray of water nearby.

Toxic?

Like most Begonias, it’s mildly toxic if ingested. Keep it out of reach of pets and children.

With bold colours and dramatic texture, the Begonia Rex Spitfire is perfect for plant lovers looking to add a little spark to their space.
