Begonia 'Ruby Celebration'

Begonia 'Ruby Celebration', often referred to as Rex Begonia, is a stunning foliage plant prized for its ornamental leaves. This cultivar group boasts a diverse array of leaf colours, patterns, and textures. The foliage can display intricate swirls and splashes of silver, pink, red, purple, and green, often with metallic sheens.

These compact plants typically reach heights of 30-45 cm, making them ideal for indoor cultivation or shaded garden spots. The leaves, which can grow up to 15 cm in length, are asymmetrical and heart-shaped, often with crimped or ruffled edges. Whilst Rex Begonias do produce small flowers, these are generally considered insignificant compared to the dramatic foliage.

Thriving in humid conditions with bright, indirect light, Begonia 'Rex' prefers well-draining, rich soil. These plants are perfect for adding a splash of colour to shaded patios, conservatories, or as striking houseplants. Their unique foliage patterns make them popular choices for collectors and plant enthusiasts seeking to create visually interesting displays.
