Spotted Begonia: Begonia maculata – 6 inch pot

Often called the Polka Dot or Spotted Begonia, the Begonia maculata Wightii is a botanical show-stopper. Native to the rainforests of Brazil, this “cane” species is famous for its elongated olive-green leaves, which are decorated with silver-white spots and backed by a dramatic deep burgundy. Beyond its foliage, it blooms clusters of ivory or pink flowers.
