This is a very rare species of Begonia native to Sarawak, which is northern Malaysia on Borneo. It is an incredible species with dark, bullate leaves that come out maroonand turn green.It does well in moderate, indirect light and moderate to high humidity, and appreciates some airflow. Moist soil and sphagnum moss are helpful for rooting this species.

All of our cuttings have adventitious, aerial roots. Our rooted specimens will have at least a few active roots and will be established plants. Our plants are grown in high humidity in terrariums and greenhouses, therefore may need acclimation to the average home humidity / environment. Please contact us for acclimation information if you are not planning to use this plant in a terrarium, greenhouse, or humid room.
