Begonia amphioxus |
The Begonia
amphioxus are coming!
This rare Begonia species was
discovered at Strange’s Garden Center in Richmond VA. It was in a terrarium display and I was told
it may need extra humidity. So, I bought
one to propagate. It is small and
delicate looking but it may be tougher.
I have a dome to cover it in the
house but it’s doing fine with no cover and no extra humidity.
I’ve never seen a Begonia with such
bright and shiny spots. It may only be
for collectors, but I like it.
Since then, I bought 8 stock plants
to cut from and to grow in 2.5” pots for the world to see.
It’s small so will take time. Prices will be high, but if you find one, how
can you not have one?
