Product Information
Perfect for bonsai or just potted on the windowsill, this semi-tuberous species from South Africa brings sculptured form to the indoor garden. Although first brought into cultivation in the 1860’s, it has never yet received the recognition deserving of this adaptable houseplant. Begonia ‘Richardsiana’ has small maple-shaped leaves and it flowers freely from spring to fall with the pearly white blossoms hanging like jewels among the sprawling branches. A swollen trunk or caudex develops on older plants giving it unique form. Shipped in a 2.5″ plastic pot.
