Begonia dracopelta

Begonia

A recently discovered Begonia from Indonesia with small, deep green heart shaped puckered leaves covered in black bumps and resemble lizard’s skin.  More suited to a terrarium but I have grown these happily in the polytunnel which is high humidity. A must have Begonia for the collector.

Max Height 30cm. Max Spread 45cm.

Bright room away from direct sunlight.

Kept it in high humidity.

Min temp 60°F / 15°C..
