Begonia Blood Stain is a dramatic hybrid begonia distinguished by its bold, high-contrast foliage. The leaves are broad and heart-shaped, displaying deep olive to dark green tones heavily splashed with intense crimson-red markings, as if stained with scattered drops of pigment. Prominent green veins radiate from the center, adding structure and depth to the richly colored surface. Reddish stems and petioles further enhance the plant’s fiery appearance.

Care Tips:

  • Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Too little light may dull the red markings, while direct sun can scorch the leaves.

  • Water: Keep the substrate evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water when the surface begins to dry, and ensure good drainage.

  • Humidity: Prefers high humidity (70–90%). Performs especially well in terrariums or enclosed environments with stable moisture levels.

  • Temperature: Best grown in warm conditions, 18–26 °C. Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature drops.

  • Soil: Use a loose, well-draining mix rich in organic matter, such as coco coir or peat with added perlite.

  • Air Circulation: Gentle airflow helps prevent fungal issues, especially in high-humidity setups.

  • Fertilizer: Feed lightly during active growth with a diluted balanced fertilizer (¼ strength) every 3–4 weeks.

  • Handling: Avoid excessive handling of the leaves to prevent damage and preserve their appearance.
