Begonia sp “Lita” – $20
Begonia sp “Lita” – $20
This delicate looking Begonia can be a challenge to get established. We find it does best in moist, but well drained soils with medium to high exposure to light. The leaves will rot if they are constantly wet, so air exchange needs to be taken in consideration. Though sometimes finicky to get started, this plant is worth the effort. Well rooted and established cuttings available.
