Begonia listada is an attractive species that hails from Brazil. The olive green leaves are elongated with pointy ends. Down the middle of the leaf, you'll find a lime green stripe and under the leaves is a beautiful maroon color.
We recommend using this Begonia plant in a terrarium or other enclosure, as it does require higher than average humidity.
Begonia listada care:
This Begonia prefers a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow the soil to dry out about 3/4 of the way before watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water for an extended period. Provide your Begonia listada plant with plenty of bright indirect light.
