Begonia Semperflorens Red Variegated

The Begonia Semperflorens Red Variegated is a striking twist on the classic “Wax Begonia.” This variety is loved for its waxy, succulent-like leaves that feature a beautiful variegation, mixing deep forest green with irregular splashes of soft old-rose pink.
Its most charming feature is the contrast between the variegated foliage and its bright, vibrant red blooms that appear throughout the year. Compact and bushy, this begonia is perfect for adding a pop of color to small spaces or mixed planters. The thick, glossy leaves give it a polished, sturdy appearance that holds up well in a variety of settings.

How to care
Light: Bright, indirect light is best. It can handle some direct morning sun, which helps intensify the pink tones and encourages more blooms.
Water: Water when the top 2 cm of soil feels dry. This variety is slightly more drought-tolerant than other begonias due to its waxy leaves, but it should not stay dry for long.
Humidity: Moderate. It is more adaptable to average indoor humidity than rare forest begonias, but it appreciates being away from very dry air.
Temperature: Thrives in a range of 18°C to 27°C. Protect it from frost and extreme heat above 32°C.
Soil: A well-draining, fertile potting mix. A standard indoor potting soil with a little extra perlite works perfectly.
