Begonia Spitfire

Rex Begonias, commonly known as King Begonia, are best known for their striking foliage. This Spitfire variety has a stunning deep red colour at its core, which is joined by a cream inner border and another deep red outer border. The foliage forms in a clustered fashion, with the fine tip at the end of each leaf adding character to its appearance. King Begonia will use its air-purifying qualities to create a stress-free living area, with the removal of harmful pollutants and unwanted toxins proving beneficial to the surrounding atmosphere. In placement, partial shade is recommended, with any direct sunlight being avoided to maintain healthy leaves. Watering the plant when the soil is dry to touch should be carried out, making once a week a suitable amount. When the plants dormant period of Winter approaches, lower this to once every two weeks.
