Begonia ‘African Jungle’ is a rhizomatous, tender, evergreen perennial prized for its vividly colored and beautifully patterned foliage. It forms a compact mound of pointed, oval leaves that are bright green with a dark red flush at the center, accented by silvery spots and streaks. The undersides feature dark red veins, and the stems share the same rich red hue, creating a striking contrast. Though mainly grown for its dramatic foliage, it may also produce small, delicate pink flowers nestled among the leaves during summer. Thriving in bright, indirect light and high humidity, this begonia brings a lush, tropical charm to indoor spaces and shaded gardens alike.

Care Tips:

  • Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Direct strong sunlight may scorch the leaves; too little light may cause the colours and patterns to fade.

  • Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but allow the top layer to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid letting the plant sit in soggy soil.

  • Soil & Drainage: Use a well-draining, airy potting mix (for example adding perlite or bark) to ensure good root aeration and avoid waterlogging.

  • Humidity & Temperature: Prefers moderate to high humidity and warm indoor temperatures. Guard against cold drafts or very dry air.

  • Display & Maintenance: Because the foliage is the main attraction, place the plant where its leaves can be appreciated (e.g., on a shelf or table). Remove any dead or damaged leaves to maintain aesthetic appeal.
